Fathers Day Text Art Gift
Have you ever heard of wordle? It is a site that helps you make word art fairly easy. For Fathers Day we created this custom text art as a gift. It takes a little time to create the word art on the the computer but my Little Chefs LOVED coming up with adjectives or phrases that describe their Dad. They all gave input which makes this gift so special.
I instructed my Little Chefs to come up with one or two words that describe Dad. They followed directions for a while, then came up with ...

Drive In Food
Yesterday we posted a fun summer activity - we made Cardboard Box Cars! The Little Chefs then "drove" their cars to their own drive-in movie!! What did we need to go with our drive-in movie adventure? Drive In Food!!
We found these great little, disposable tin containers that include a lid at the dollar store, in a package of 3. They were all excited to have their very own, even though they were identical!
We decided it would be great to compartmentalize the food using paper cupcake ...
Cardboard Box Cars
What to do with all your extra Cardboard Boxes? Create some summer fun and make Cardboard Box Cars!! In the past, we have taken the Little Chefs to a Drive-In Movie, and they LOVED it!! Recently we have had a lot of empty cardboard boxes around the house. And before I could send them out to the recycle bin - the Little Chefs were already busy putting their creative juices to work and making something fun.......they wanted to make a car to take to their OWN drive-in movie!!
So the Little ...
Fun with Sidewalk Chalk
Have you ever wondered what happens when you mix sprinklers, sidewalk chalk and my Little Chefs?......... Hours of Fun with Sidewalk Chalk and colorful creations that don't just end up on the sidewalk - it ends up everywhere!
On one hot afternoon, Chef Dad was outside working in the yard and fixing sprinkler problems that caused a flood in our basement last winter (and that story would be an entire blog post on its own!!!) The Little Chefs decided they wanted to run through the sprinklers ...
Car Travel Games
I love to keep things organized and contained in the car well...to start out with at least. It seems like a few hours in and I'm telling them to clean up just like at home. We have gotten in the habit of pulling out all the garbage and putting things away at each gas station or stop we make. That seems to really help a lot!
I had to search for a while, because all boxes are different sizes and shapes, before I found these blue boxes for my van. They fit perfectly under the last row. I can ...
Triple Travel Snack Bag
Do you have Little Chefs like me who love a variety of snacks, but who do not like them to mix? My Little Chefs have a hard time choosing just one snack. When we are traveling my goal is to keep them happy. Whatever it takes seems to be our motto on a long road trip.
Today we are sharing our Triple Travel Snack Bag that Little Chef H could not put down. This is very simple to construct yet it yields great results.
Ingredients
1 locking quart bag
3 locking sandwich bags
duct tape ...
Embellished Cuff
Do you have a leather or pleather coat or purse that you do not want anymore? If the answer is yes then you have the main material for our Embellished Cuff. This is the perfect idea for my Little Chefs because they absolutely LOVE reusing items instead of throwing them away. They are constantly trying to come up with something they can make with items that are not being used anymore. The Embellished Cuff is so fun to make because the possibilities are endless. You can use anything that ...
Bird Feeder
Spring is here! The trees and flowers are in bloom. And we are starting to see and hear more & more birds! The Little Chefs have been worried that the birds are "starving" because we have no food for them in our backyard. Their grandparents have a big bird feeder in their backyard - and the Little Chefs love to watch and learn about the local birds. And also like to know that they are getting enough to eat, especially for the baby birds.
Backyard bird feeders come in all different ...
