I don’t know about some of you, but I am still enjoying the last few days of Summer vacation. The new school year starts on Monday and I am very excited to see my old friends and meet my new teacher.
Until that day comes, I will be playing with my LEGO bricks and creating beautiful things like the LEGO Mini Car with Pet Sidecar I put together with the help of my brother.

Good night and have a fun weekend.

We had so much fun creating a Zebra Habitat for my daughter’s school project. Each child was given a specific animal and was asked to create a unique habitat for their animal.

Materials/Tools Needed

  • School Glue
  • Scissors
  • Synthetic Trees/branches
  • Stones
  • Craft Moss
  • Cardboard
  • Markers
  • Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
  • Box/container (we used the base of a Plastic Cake Container)
  • Desert Toy Animals (or cutouts from drawings or Magazine)

Step by Steps (for this project):

  • Figure out the placement of the Animals and Plants.
  • Generously apply school glue at the base of the cardboard, sprinkle your craft moss and let it dry. Use the Glue Gun to glue down the larger items like the Animals, Stones and Synthetic Trees/Branches.
  • For the stream, use a blue marker (for the water) to paint and then apply some glue and let it dry.

DIY: A Fancy Feather Coat

JM Perez By JM Perez1 min read1K views

My children’s school is celebrating the 100th day of school today.
My daughter’s class was asked to create and decorate their T-shirts for a fashion show.  She looked forward to this day with much anticipation to show off her creation.

We had a totally different design idea for the T-shirt, but a slight mistake led us to what you now see, “The Lady and her Fancy Feather Coat.” Regardless, I think it turned out great.
