Me! - Modular origami! The kusudama is a paper model that I usually created by connecting multiple units together. The individual pieces may be glued, sewed or connected with themselves. The complete kusudama may be decorated with tassels, beads, feathers and anything you can imagine. Kusudama originate from ancient Japanese culture, where they were used for incense like a talismans against evil. It's possible that they were originally the bunches of flowers and herbs. Nowadays kusudama has become a beautiful gift and an interesting hobby. All models are rather simple if you follow the diagram.

I was shocked to see my blogger stats the last few days skyrocket with over 70,000 hits to THIS post alone (about paper wreaths of all things). I figured that if that many people are interested in such a thing, I might as well provide guidance on how to make them. Maybe it will help to ease the stream of e-mailed inquiries I've been getting. You need: 1.) one 9''x18'' sheet of green construction paper 2.) scrap paper of any color you'd like for bows, berries, etc.
First, take the green paper and fold it in half... ...hot-dog style, like this. Draw a line along the length that is open...NOT the side where the crease is...about 1-2 inches away from the edge. Then, draw tic marks every half-inch along the top and the bottom. I always tie this project in with the math lesson we have each December on measuring to the nearest half-inch. Next, connect those tic marks with your ruler to make straight cutting lines. Then, cut along each line you drew, being careful not to go too far! Now, open it up...

Games Night Get some board games (Clue, Monopoly, cards, UNO, etc.) and pizza and soda (or not, your choice) and play games! I've found that more people, especially in college, really like games than you would ever realize. Get some interaction games (like charades or taboo) that really get people talking to each other.
My favorite college game is Mafia. Mafia is really, really fun, everyone talks to each other, and the nature of the game is tha alliances are built and destroyed, but ultimately you'll probably still be talking about it after the game (building community).

Teen Activities. Teen Activities? I have two teenage daughters and we live in a lower-middle income neighborhood. Most of the other kids who come around have little or no desire to "do" anything. They just want to "hang". I don't mind them being at our house but would like to get them all involved, perhaps without them knowing it, in activities for themselves or for other people in the neighborhood. The kids, about 4-8 at a time, are average kids. A Little Family History Encourage them to explore their family tree. Organized for Good Melanie is sitting on a gold mine of opportunity with the teens that want to just hang at her house with her kids. I hope that she can talk to one of the counselors at the high school and find out how to loosely gather the kids and do something like volunteer at the local nursing home one day or so a week, or find out if there is a senior who needs to have his or her house painted and ask the kids to join her family on the project.

Ever since our adventure with “secret message watercolor painting” the munchkin has been enamored with his watercolors. So this week we decided to mix things up a bit by painting with watercolors, clear Elmer’s glue and salt. Isn’t the final result neat? The idea for using glue and salt with watercolors came from Pinterest. I kept seeing pins with notes about sprinkling salt on wet watercolors or using glue to create designs on top of the paint. Finally I saw this post about combining the two techniques and I was like, that’s it, we’re doing this.
As you can see in the photo above, the munchkin was super into this activity. Totally focused. We used canvases for our paintings because I had some around, but watercolor paper would work equally well. After setting everything up the process was simple and fun! So, kinda like cloud watching, the munchkin was all about seeing shapes in the blobs of glue. After adding the glue the final step was sprinkling salt around on the painting. Yes. Ari.
