What we have been doing..

I guess I haven't posted in awhile. Mostly because I just didn't take pictures of what we have been doing. That, and baby J hasn't been taking long afternoon naps lately.

I thought I would share some pictures of seasonal things I have out.
The felt turkey, the feather counting and color matching (made from paper) are leftover from my teaching days. 
(sorry about the dark pictures)


 Pumpkin toss - I made a stuffed pumpkin and C tossed it into a waste basket
 Felt board turkey
 Counting feathers
Matching feathers

This isn't Thanksgiving related, but I finally got around to making the button snake I have seen around blog land. I recently saw this post on Activity Mom using felt pieces shaped like leaves. I probably won't get around to making leaves, but I do plan on making felt trees for Christmas. 

 We made lots of hand print turkeys
(not sure why this one showed up sideways)

 Hand print candy corn

My version of the button turkey
(I am not much of a sewer, but he was pretty easy to make)

I have other ideas planned, hopefully I can get those pictures posted before Thanksgiving!

Handprint Cards

I love hand print crafts. And my toddler loves her to have her hands painted :)
So I take advantage of this to make homemade greeting cards for family members. 
Here are a few from the past few months.
  Hand print birthday cakes

Footprint ghost & palm print pumpkin cards

Hand print turkey cards

 Hand print Santa card

For Easter this year we made cards using the idea I found at Moments of Mommyhood
I put paint on her finger to make the nose and eyes. C made the smiles all by herself.

 And I made 2 of these cards for C's Grandma and Great Grandma who have birthdays next week.
It is incredibly hard to paint a 4 week old's hand :)
