What a fun looking project! I cannot wait for it to rain now! -MJ
Summer vacation is upon us. Even if you have your kids signed up for camps, sports, and learning programs, there’s bound to be a rainy day or two. Suddenly, you’ll find yourself with a full house and nothing to do.
Don’t panic - file away this fun, easy kid’s suncatcher craft that requires nothing but household items: water, Epsom salt, and a plastic lid.

Spin Master Presents Sew Cool! The Sewing Machine For Kids!
My sewing machine and I have a difficult relationship. I love all the wonderful things I can make on her and the way her stitches are so nice and pretty. I love the pitter-patter of the motor turning over the thread, however the thread is where my singer and I are always in a constant argument! It catches, it bunches, it breaks. Oh man there is nothing more infuriating than threading a needle on your machine when all you want to do is hem a pair of pants or close a pillow. HOWEVER, even though we may fight, learning how to sew is one of the most important trades that any person can learn even in our technologically advanced age. Not only that, but it's coming back as a trend with all the DIY projects out there. Kids as well as adults are feeling the need to learn this art, and now Spinmaster Toys has a great product to introduce your child or tween into the field.
They've produced the Sew Cool series that is a great way for your child to learn the fundamentals of the sewing machine, without the annoying thread part. Sew Cool is a great and inexpensive way to teach your child the basics of a sewing machine, and let them show their creative side as well, especially in an age where home economics will soon be a thing of the past in school curriculum.
Nickelodeon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Summer Toys!!!
Nickelodeon is certainly bringing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle line up a notch this summer with a line of fun new toys to suit any child of any age! From action figures to fishing poles, if your kid is obsessed with TMNT you will have no problem fitting it into their everyday use.
First up is the TMNT Brita hard-sided filtering water bottles. I am IN LOVE with this item. This is a 15oz refillable water bottle that is kid sized as well as approved. With the TMNT printed on the side this built in filtered bottle makes great tasting water from any source. It is BPA-free, hard sided, and dishwasher safe. PERFECT for car, pool and beach trips, or for the family on the go. You no longer have to dig in your purse for the $1.50 for a water bottle, or worry about your kids sucking down "gross" water from the fountain. Just pour the water in the cup, when you child sips through the straw the water will be cleaned before it touches their lips! The filter is good for approximately 2 months of use or 40 gallons of water- whatever you reach first. Your kiddos will love having the fun cup as their go to drink source while you will fall in love with the convenience! We already have bought two more for ourselves!
The Brita water bottle will be the perfect pair to the No Tangle Fishing Poles by Lil Anglers that are now available TMNT style. This is an adorable little fishing rod (that every kid on LI needs if you ask me) that will make your little one feel like a super cool big kid while sitting at your favorite fishing hole! Made for beginners in mind, this pole includes a tangle free online rod and reel that actually prevents line bunching while fishing. Imagine a day of calm waters and NO
