Children love to share their adventures. This craft is all about creating a way for a child of any age to share their fun with people they care about. The level of help needed from you depends on the age of your child. I did this activity with my two year old daughter just to show you how simple it can be.

With 3 kids I take a lot of photos, A LOT. My digital camera is almost an extension of my arm. Taking pictures allows me to capture those brief moments of discovery and joy and inspiration and love so I can cherish and remember them when the moment passes. And they always seem to pass so quickly.

Getting my kids to sit at the table quietly and calmly is a challenge I face at many mealtimes in our house. Part of it is transitioning from being active to sitting quietly and the other part is probably just hyper hunger energy.
My kids love crafts. They love drawing and painting and creating sculptures. If it involves paint or glue or scissors or markers, they’ll be all over it. And like any proud mama, I’ve displayed many pieces of art, we’ve stored some of our favourites in an art box and have giving many as gifts to the relatives. But sometimes I feel like we’re over-run by paper crafts. I think that’s why I love crafts that produce finished objects, like some of the items available from Janlynn.
