If you love Halloween but don’t want to get toooo spooky with it when it comes to the kids, you’ll love this spiderweb decorated Halloween popsicle stick house (with your little sweetie in it!) I just love (well… and sometimes hate) how that fake spiderweb clings to everything and it’s my son’s favorite part of decorating – putting that stuff all over anything he can in the house! He actually likes spiders year round, so it’s no stretch that he would love a picture of himself inside of a spider … Read more

After feeling the first crisp fall morning, I knew it was time to make my fall activity journal for the kiddos so that we could really start to explore and enjoy it! I have created a fall BINGO/scavenger hunt of sorts but this cute fall activity journal focuses on really exploring all the little things about fall through sketching and writing. It fits in a pocket, so it’s really the perfect thing to bring on those cool day hikes to give kids something to think about! It’s not all sketches … Read more

If you’re looking for a cute Halloween craft for the kids (that you’ll actually want to keep!) then look no further than these adorable DIY Halloween pendant necklaces!

Skeletons, spiders and bugs, are all … Read more

If you’re ready to enjoy all the AWESOME things about fall, then you’ll love doing this fall scavenger hunt with your kids! Now, this isn’t the traditional scavenger hunt – it’s actually in a BINGO format so that it can be enjoyed a couple of different ways. Fall is a welcome season after a long hot summer, and even I gotta say (as someone who LOVES summer and sort of dreads the long winter) that I am looking forward to all things cozy and fall colored! Here are a couple … Read more

If you love camping (and are kind of bummed Halloween is coming already!) then you’ll LOVE these camping themed pumpkin carving templates! Tents, trailers, bears, ghosts, s’mores… and almost all of them have a spooky Halloween touch! I have tried to make sure they are not tooo scary – I have kids, after all, and am not trying to be up all night with them if they get scared – but I think you’ll love them! Whether you’re adding a spooky camping touch to your home, or decorating your campsite … Read more
