MamaVonTeacher: DIY Interactive Books... Here's a little project that I've been working on lately: DIY interactive books out of cheap discount store sticker books. I love sticker books, but the problem with sticker books is that they can only be 'restuck' so many times with a classroom full of preschool students; they about destroyed one of these 're-usable' sticker books in one a day! They did, however, have a great time with the book before annihilating it. I set out to solve this problem with a few cheap books in hand, some cardstock, sharp scissors and my school's industrial size laminator. Here's a farm themed sticker book that I purchased a while ago at the dollar store: First, I took out the sticker pages and placed the stickers on a piece of white cardstock. Then I did a little surgery and took the book apart - this one just had a couple of staples in the middle that I needed to pull out. My kids practically beg to read it and love putting the 'sticker 'pieces in the book kind of like a puzzle.
Blanket Tutorial From I am Momma Hear me Roar! I'm sure you all have been over to I am Momma Hear Me Roar! Cheri is so sweet and I'm so glad she let me share this tutorial with you! Just about everything she makes comes out fabulous ... and this is no exception! Here it is! When I started brainstorming about the theme "baby gifts" I wanted to think of something I would truly want to receive for a baby. This mat is guranteed to keep a baby happy and entertained. Want to add your own toys? But, the best part is....it's machine washable. Want a brief run down of how it was made? 1) I cut both the green and blue fleece to be 4' by 4'. 2) I sewed on all the goods....flowers, rocks, the sun, a branch. 3) I used two layers of batting and "quilted" it in a few different ways. 4) I trimmed the edges to be even and sewed on the satin baby blanket edging. That's basically the run-down. I told you! Oh, and P.S. {Click to enlarge!}

Dress-Up Crown Tutorial I made birthday crowns for my girls last year. I had intended for them to be a special birthday thing, that we got out only once a year, so they would be extra special. But, as these things go, the girls loved them, and they found a permanent home in our dress up basket. I had no idea how much the kids would love them. They are a regular feature around here. I decided to make a bunch for an art fair coming up, and put together this tutorial while I was at it. I digress. Update: Be sure to check out the Nicholas Crown Project that this tutorial inspired! Instructions: 1. 2. Playing House: Momma made....I Spy Book I saw this awesome idea for an I Spy Book over at No Time For Flashcards and I knew I had to make one for Sweet Girl!!!

Sweet Girl really loves looking through the book and was really surprised to see HER TOYS in there. Here are some pages from our I Spy Book.... This is the cover of our book.

Here are some other great I Spy things to make for your little one!! Do you have any more I Spy ideas????
How To Make A Stick Horse When I first made stick horses here, I adapted a no-sew tutorial from Family Fun magazine so I could use my sewing machine. People wrote to ask how I made my stick horses, and I always referred them to that original tutorial. As I made more horses, and eventually unicorns, I drew up a pattern because I wanted uniform-sized horse heads, and the freedom to sew everything on, including the eyes, before gluing the heads to the sticks. This pattern has been sitting in my to-finish tubs for a long time, as has the stack of torn jeans that I wanted to turn into more horses. Note that my torn jeans, split open, look like this - just to encourage you that yes, even that hole in the knee is OK for turning out a pretty decent horse: Here is the pattern. Some notes: There are NO seam allowances. You can use the pattern on actual old jeans, or just cut up brand new fabric. Righto- let's begin. Step 1 Press the seam allowances of the inside ear piece inwards. Step 2 Top-stitch them to the ear pieces.
DIY Eye-Spy Book When I saw this post by Jenae over at I Can Teach My Child ( who will be a guest poster tomorrow so don’t miss it! ) my head was running with ideas on how to make something similar. I would be lying if I told you it was easy, maybe it would have been with no kids but I had an infant in my arms while taking every picture and a 4 year old helper wanting to “help”. However the results were pretty cool and it’s a great book to take to church or somewhere else where talking is frowned upon. Gather your materials.

Car Mat...Part 3 Mark it Up and Play! I choose to mark the roads, railroad, signs, and airport landing strip with permanent marker, you could sew them all or applique black fabric. In a few years I will need to freshen it up, but for now I like the look of this. After the railroad is complete you can start to draw in the rest of the city. You can draw a sidewalk if you want to, I just marked a line where each driveway or store entrance is. Add crosswalks, stop signs and other traffic signs. I should have made these railroad crossing signs the same size--but I didn't notice it until I was coloring the yellow. Add parking spots where ever there is room. The finished carmat Oh yeah! The car mat is in full use now. The zoo if getting full. Cars are everywhere, imaginations are running wild. Hope you can make one for your children too.
