Crayon Molds


I made crayon molds for the first time. I have been wanting to make crayon molds for awhile and have had a bucket of crayons to use, it was just something that got pushed down on the to do list. I made gingerbread men and women which turned out so cute.


I also made trees for each season that I am really excited about. This batch I made for a gift but I plan on making another set to use with the girls next year. I don't have a specific plan yet but I can see incorporating them into a talk about the seasons.

Prep Work

Life seems to always be go go go. I like to stay busy but I don't want to be busy anymore with worthless things but profitable things. I finally had a day to be home so I made a list of a bunch of things that I needed to get done.

I have been seeing a lot of button activities so I decided to make a sun because I need alittle sunshine right now.

PF helped me by making gift bags for their teachers' gifts.



Dragonfly helped with the chocolate...well just with licking the spoon clean when I was done.
A button sorting activities to keep Dragonfly busy.

Making glitter playdough.


Colored rice.
I ended up getting alot done and it felt so good to get this stuff done. Plus I did our Christmas cards which took the longest out of everything. And there is still so much more to get done. A mommy's job is never ending which is a really good thing.
