Hey Friends! I did a little bit of spring decorating, inspired (of course) by Pinterest. What the heck did I do before Pinterest? I have a large window that takes up most of one wall of my room. I love that it lets in so much light and I like to dress it up a bit for the seasons. ...
Hey Friends! I am so excited to bring you today's giveaway from Learning Resources. Of the three great products I got to review, this is by far my favorite. It's the Luna Interactive Projection Camera! source: Learning Resources I have a document camera in my room and I use ...
I've been shakin' it up again, my friends! I had a little nudge from a fabulous reader (hi Becky!) and came up with this Springtime Compound Shaker! This one looks a bit different from my other shakers {click HERE and HERE for those} because instead of a Trop50 bottle, this one ...
Happy Spring, my friends! In celebration of the first day of this great new season, I have my seasonal Bump game ready for you all! I love, love, love that I've gotten quite a few emails asking me if I was planning on a new version of Bump for spring! And the feedback ...

Man oh man, making these has been quite the undertaking! I seriously underestimated how long it was going to take. I'm really trying to be sure that they spiral up and the difficulty level increases with each set. I'm also trying to find multiple ways for the kids to practice each ...
I am back from a few fabulous days of sun and fun with the hubs. What's better than hanging poolside with an adult beverage and your honey? Already looking forward to the next getaway... But for now, it's back to reality! Thank you all so, so much for taking the time to leave your ...
Ahh...Hello Spring Break! This is not such a bad view to wake up to. Am I right? One of the advantages of living in Florida is that you can hop in the car and drive to some great little getaway spots in just a couple of hours. Today's lovely view comes to you from Sanibel. ...
I was contacted recently by Learning Resources about reviewing some of their newest items in a line of affordable technology products. Being the techy chick that I am, I happily accepted, so check back each Monday for the next three weeks for a chance to win some fantastic resources. ...
When I wrote about my super big love for Babbling Abby's inferencing unit many of you commented that you were also having a tough time teaching the skill. So today I'm going to share some of the other resources I added to the week to really drive that skill home. After we ...
I'm breaking the unwritten rule of blogging more than once a day, but I think this is worthy. Crystal over at Kreative in Kinder is hosting a link-up for anyone willing to help the teachers who have lost everything in the recent tornadoes. I'm on spring break right now, but when ...
Before I invite you into my yard, I have a funny story I must share. Our district is starting a program enabling the kids to sample fresh fruits and vegetables periodically at lunch. This week it was blackberries. When they made the announcement about it, I tried to get ...
