Chalkboard table

The girls were gifted a WHITE table five years ago.   Over the years, they have eaten on it, played games and toys on it (including play-doh) and they have drawn it...with markers and crayons and...sharpies.  I contact papered it a few times and you can read more here.  When the paper ran out, I decided to rip off the paper and spray paint it with black chalkboard paint.  Picked up some for $4 and went to town. I also painted a picture frame and tin can (see pic).  Ecos makes eco-friendly chalkboard paint for $30.  It's 100% non toxic, VOC free and allergy safe.

smart summers

Continue summer learning for the kiddies with Summer Bridge Activity Books.  I bought two of these puppies on Amazon for $24.  They have activities for every weekday of the summer centered around math, science, fitness, social studies, reading, and language.  Well worth it and the girls love doing them!
Stickers, certificate and color flashcards are also included.
