DIY Friday: Easy Puzzles for Kids

Summer is just FLYING by but it hasn't been as eventful as I'd hoped! We have had some terrible weather here in my neck of the woods. Sweltering and humid one day, then flash flooding and hailing the next. My pup has been bored being stuck inside and has been extra pesty. I can only imagine having bored kiddos! 


Need a way to keep those bored little ones busy AND help them learn at the same time? I have a really great, inexpensive, crafty activity that can do both! 

Easy Puzzles for Kids 

Puzzles are lots of fun, but they can be a tricky toy to master! This custom children's activity is a great introduction for kids who aren't quite ready for the real ones yet. You will make your own puzzles out of sponges, and then you'll make outlines for each one you create. Your child will be able to start off using the outline to put the puzzles together, and after he gets the hang of it, he'll be able to do them all on his own! In addition to getting in some laughs and preparing for the real deal, your child will develop foundational math skills. So let's get to it! 

What You Need:

• Sponges
• Card stock
• Scissors
• Ruler
• Pencil
• Marker

What You Do:

1. Outline shapes on the sponges. Be sure to create a variety of basic shapes. Squares, triangles, and rectangles all work well.
2. Carefully cut out the shapes.
3. Arrange the shapes so that they create a design or picture of some sort.
4. Transfer the arrangement to the piece of card stock. Then, use a pencil to lightly outline the shapes on the card stock. The card stock is the puzzle base and will serve as a reference for your child.
5. Retrace the pencil marks with a thick black marker, using a ruler where needed.
6. Give your child the sponge puzzles and the guides, and encourage him to fit the shapes together to complete his puzzle.

Once he's gotten the hang of it, challenge him to put the puzzles together without the guides. This is his first step towards doing real puzzles on his own! This is also a great way to teach your child the basic shapes. If you use various colored sponges, you could also incorporate colors, too!

If you enjoy this activity, please head to Education.com to check out some of their other fabulous activities to help build your child's skills!

20% Off Girly Gifts - Mermaid-Themed Goodies!

My beautiful niece, Elin, will be taking her First Communion at the end of May. I've been batting around ideas in my head for the perfect gift since I don't believe in giving monetarily for these types of events. Elin just recently received a set of rosaries from her recently-passed Vavo, so I wanted to get something not necessarily religious-themed.

And I found the perfect gift for my mermaid-loving Elin.

SmitCo was kind enough to send me their new Scented Secret Scrapbook. The icing on the top of the cake is the scratch and sniff stickers! I just know Elin will love this gift - not only does she love mermaids, but she is obsessed with arts and crafts. This is the best of both worlds!

This kit comes with 114 individual pieces, including stickers, washi tape and a lockable scented diary! I can't even!

SmitCo offers quality, affordable gifts for girls ages 2 to 12. A huge hit is the brand new Mermaid themed scrapbook kit  - which I just had to have - as well as 3 unique princess dress up sets. They also have several different diaries with lock and keys and diary sets for girls in Emoji and Diva themes, as well as several different nail art sets to provide hours of fun.

SmitCo products also include rose gold, gold or rhodium plated jewelry and sets, as well as very popular stretch sets for little girls - all packed in cute gift boxes.

Interested in shopping for your little lady? Find all the great products here. I trust you will find some or all gifts here for the princesses on your list!

To make shopping even more fun, my readers get to save!

Low Cost Rabies Clinics in MA

Have some furry friends? Are they already costing you an arm and leg? Don't let a rabies shot cause you to lose another appendage!

Many municipalities throughout Massachusetts offer low-cost rabies clinics, especially during the spring months. Massachusetts requires that all cats and dogs be up to date on their rabies' vaccinations. This is so critical, especially if your beloved fur-ball ever leaves the house!

The following may not apply to all clinics, but has been my experience in the past:

• Cash is the only accepted form of payment.
• To be eligible for a three year vaccine, owners must bring proof of prior vaccination.
• You do not need to be a resident of the Town in which the clinic is being held in order to attend.

Please check out this frequently updated list of clinics available throughout Massachusetts.


I also volunteer for the Seekonk Animal Shelter and will be helping out at their annual Rabies Clinic on March 11th.


If you'd rather check out the clinics available in Rhode Island, take a peek at my other post.

Low Cost Rabies Clinics in RI

Have some furry friends? Are they already costing you an arm and leg? Don't let a rabies shot cause you to lose another appendage!

The Rhode Island Veterinary Medical Association is putting on their annual Rabies Clinics throughout Rhode Island. This is an incredibly low-cost way to get your furries' their rabies vaccines. The most expensive clinic is only $15 and most are around $10!

Please keep in mind that it is required by law that all cats, dogs and ferrets have an up-to-date rabies vaccine. If you're interested in learning more about Massachusetts rabies clinics, check out my post here.

Some important things to know about Rhode Island rabies clinics:

• Cash is the only accepted form of payment.
• To be eligible for a three year vaccine, owners must bring proof of prior vaccination and as far as I know, that previous vaccination cannot be expired (this is different from MA)
• You do not need to be a resident of the Town in which the clinic is being held in order to attend.

After Christmas Blow Out Sale - Crab Pot Tree Decoration Review

Yesterday was a bittersweet day at CMM's house. We finally put away the last of the Christmas decorations - the outdoor lighted decorations to be exact. The indoor decorations stayed up until Epiphany, or Three Kings' Day, but I just couldn't bring myself to put away the beautiful lights that made our house look so beautiful and festive.

This year we were blessed with an additional unique decoration - a gorgeous 3' tall lit Christmas tree - courtesy of the great folks at Crab Pot Trees. Not only was it absolutely beautiful, but it was incredibly convenient - set up and break down in seconds, and compact and easy to store.

Crab Pot Trees are available in a variety of sizes and light options. Trees range from 1.5 feet tall all the way up to 8 feet tall. If you have a large yard, a cluster of trees in a variety of sizes would be breathtaking. To make deciding even tougher, there are many light color and style options available. You can choose from solid lights, twinkling lights, colored, white or even patriotic themed. If you're looking to minimize the impact on your family's electric bill, Crab Pot Trees even come with the option of LED lights versus incandescent!

I received my Crab Pot Tree in a box the size of a child's guitar - it was folded flat and secured with twist ties for shipping purposes. The set up took all of a minute: untwist the ties, unfold the Crab Pot Tree, then twist the ties to secure the tree open. Voila!  Really, that's it - no other set up required except to plug it in to an outlet. It was so light that I had no problem carrying it outside myself. One of my favorite features is that there is no "back side" of the tree - the lights carry around the entire tree so no matter what angle you look at it, it is beautiful.

When it was time to pack it back up, I just reversed set up. It folded flat and fit right back in the box I received it in.

Now I know Christmas is over. But I always love to shop for Christmas gifts and decor year-round, especially right after Christmas when you can get the best bang for your buck.

Right now, an After Christmas Blow Out Sale is in full effect at the Crab Pot Trees Store online. Huge savings on all Crab Pot Trees plus free shipping! You seriously can't go wrong.
