Learn how to make your own two-colored paracord bracelets!

DIY Paracord Bracelets

Last summer we took on the Percy Jackson Challenge, and my daughter has been obsessed with Greek mythology ever since. She has read The Trials of Apollo series from Rick Riordan multiple times, and is SO excited for the release of book #5 coming this October!

With so many summer camps cancelled this year, young readers can still go to camp - at Camp Half-Blood! We did all kinds of fun activities at our at-home camp, like reading books and making paracord bracelets to represent Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter from The Trials of Apollo series!

Kids of all ages will love making Butterfly Suncatchers to brighten up your home!!

Free Printable Butterfly Suncatcher

I was thinking about everything going on right now, and how our lives are never really going to be the same again once this is over. For a moment (or a few), I felt defeated and overwhelmed by it all.  Soon enough, I came across a quote from Steven Aitchison: “A caterpillar must endure a season of isolation before it turns into a butterfly. Embrace the time you have alone, it will only make you stronger.”

This quote, along with seeing people adding bright colors to their windows and sidewalks, inspired me to create this Free Printable Butterfly Suncatcher project. It's a simple craft that kids of all ages can do, and like the butterfly, it's a great reminder that we will get through this tough time together. Plus, everyone who passes by your home will love seeing the pops of color on display!

Help kids learn to tell time easier with this free printable clock face!

Free Printable Clock Face for Kids

When my daughter was working on telling time, she mastered telling time on the hour first. However, she struggled a little with figuring out the minutes. It was confusing for her to remember that each hour number also represented a different number in minutes.

She’s a visual learner, so I created a printable clock face that has the minutes next to the hour numbers to help her remember. I know she can’t be the only one who has had a hard time with this, so hopefully this printable clock face can help other little ones to understand telling time on their own.
