Breakfast Berry Nachos

Wowzers - these Breakfast Berry Nachos look amazing.  And I can assure you that my boys would gooble 'em up.  I'm thinkin' instead of the wheat pita chips I will substitute some cut up Cinnamon Raisin Bread toast.  I might have to make one for myself first - you know, just to make sure it's OK!  Best part about it is that it's mega-quick to throw together on a school morning.  Head HERE for the full recipe.

A Finger Knitting How-To

photo credit

AJ learned how to finger knit in art class.  After school pickup that day, he was INSPIRED and we HAD to make a run to Michael's for yarn - all types of colors!  He spent a good deal of time over the winter break knitting lovely scarves as gifts for his friends and family.  He spent even more time teaching each of us how to finger knit.  It's such fun, and the best part is that the kiddos can really see their progress QUICKLY. I looked around and found this wonderful tutorial on finger knitting at Flax & Twine.  Anne will show you EXACTLY how to finger knit, with LOTS of step-by-step photos (AWESOME!).  Give it a shot next time you're feeling crafty!

Awesome Kids Blurb Book Ideas

There’s something about the holidays—that warm glow from the fire, the fact that you actually get to spend time with your kids (or your friends’ and family’s kids)—that makes it the perfect time to curl up with the little ones in your life and read them a storybook. Reading a totally new, beautiful, amazing book with a child is a treasured holiday experience. And if you choose the right book, every time the child reads it alone in the future will bring back the memory of that time you shared. If you’re a little tired of the standard children’s book selections in your local brick and mortar store, Blurb has a really incredible assortment of self-published children’s books that you won’t find anywhere else this holiday season. Try a few of these future classics and create some new holiday memories this year. 

Title: Ollie + Loo 
Author: Joni Cooper 
www.blurb.com/b/4554150-ollie-+-loo 
Joni Cooper brings incredibly original characters to life with brilliant illustrations in a book that will have parents and kids laughing along together. 

Title: Edward Hopper and the Carrot Crunch 
Author: Mike Smith 
www.blurb.com/books/1189264-edward-hopper-and-the-carrot-crunch 
Very few children’s books have financial mismanagement as a central theme—we can only assume most children’s book authors have not had the pleasure of meeting a rabbit named Edward Hopper. 

Title: My Bug Journal 
Author: Hannah Rollings 
www.blurb.com/b/1925331-my-bug-journal 
Bug-lover or other, this journal is sure to spark interest from anyone who takes a peek inside the covers. Enchanted illustrations, bug facts, room for records and much, much more. 

Title: Myrtle & the Scarecrow 
Author: Kate Lowe 
www.blurb.com/b/4662116-myrtle-the-scarecrow 
Myrtle finds solace with a not-so-scary scarecrow?and learns a lot about herself? in this short but sweet tale. The atmospheric illustrations have a little magic about them—we look forward to more from this young, talented illustrator.

Best of all, you can Save 20% on print books when you spend $40 or more!
