Children's Book Activities. Song%20book%20for%20programming. Homemade Play Kitchen. Erin Woodward, who runs the blog Sutton Grace, has created a fabulous play kitchen for her daughter out of an old entertainment center.
You know, the kind you see for sale at almost every garage sale you’ve ever been to in the burbs. Although the one she used in her reuse project was a bit nicer than those, with some nice detailing along the bottom. Lucky for us, Erin included a thorough step-by-step of the project, so any of us can make our own. Time to go check out some garage sales!

In this post I am going to share how I set up each activity and prepared the play space for the play date. Then tomorrow I will tell you all about the messy fun the little ones had! Black Light Play Date Party The first thing I had to do to prepare for the play date was replace the light bulbs in the basement play area with black light bulbs. This was very easy to do. I set the room up similar to the way I had for our first group sensory play date.

It turned out to be a simple project that let us hold onto autumn's colors for a little big longer -- while opening up lots of opportunities to teach the girls about science and nature. First took a walk though a local park to collect different sized and shaped leaves. Making the Leaf Animals Once the leaves were pressed, we were ready to turn them into colorful animal artwork. 1.
