I love visiting your site and seeing all the wonderful projects you do! One question: Where do you keep all of the finished projects? My son is almost 3, and we make a lot of crafts & such, but I'm never sure whether to save them, throw them away, or what. Any ideas? Thanks.

Someone else asked me this and I do not have any great ideas.

Having 4 kids I can not possibly save all of their art projects. That is one reason why I started the blog.I can save the projects on line and not in my house. My kids know that I do not save very many projects. I display them for a while (on the refrigerator, picture frames,ect), and then 90% of them go into the trash. I do save any project that has my kid's pictures on them. And for some reason, I do save a lot of our Christmas project, but everything else goes.



I do not have any great ideas about saving projects. Oprah had a show about saving kid's art project. Her guest suggested taking pictures of the projects and then make a book from snapfish with the pictures.



I am sorry I am not much help, but thanks for the question and thanks for coming to my blog.

Super Easy Volcanos

I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Here is another repost, we are doing bugs at preschool, so this fits right into what we are doing. I found this cute craft on the Better Homes and Garden website. My kids saw it and could not wait to make it (because it is a bug). I made some modifications to it to make it a little easier for younger kids. Do not be scared of the paint because you do not have to use it. I know paint can be messy. You will need toilet paper roll, scissors, glue, pom-poms, paint or markers or green construction paper for the body (to make the toilet paper roll green), wiggly eyes, chenille stems, green foam sheet or construction paper and a pencil. Have the kids paint the toilet paper roll green. OR you can have them color it with a marker OR just wrap it in green construction paper and glue it. While the paint is drying, I get all the pieces set up to glue on. I used foam sheets to cut out legs but construction paper will work too. For the nose, I cut a triangle out of craft ...
