Sun Catchers

 My daughter had  a four day weekend last week due to Veteran's Day and  Parents-Teachers Meeting so I have to come up with a project that they  can do.  We went to the Dollar Tree and bought a pack of this Sun Catchers  Christmas kit.  

 I am glad that Mr. Burrito is showing interest in doing arts now.  He is also starting to draw faces and other stuff.

 Simple things like this can really  keep them busy and  hone their creativity.  This is better than just letting your kids just watch TV.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Product of Creativity

Remember the Bliss Meltaway chocolate that was sent to me by a kind blogger, Jann?  She included it in the box when she shipped the prize I won from her giveaway.  Anyhow,  a couple of days ago, me and Ms. Burrito were doing her homework at our kitchen and I ate one of it.  I thought of making the wrapper into  a flower and it looked nice.  Ms. Burrito even asked me to put it in her ear lol.  

Here's the product of our creativity.

Egg-Cellent Day

We bought a pack of Easter egg coloring kit for us to use. We did it at Dad's house and we all had fun!

Mr. Burrito  engaged  into coloring the eggs this year.  Last year, he did not care to much.

Doing this kind of thing with my Burritos is so much fun.  We never had these type of activities when I was a kid so whenever I am doing it with them, I feel like a kid too lol.

You can see how involve Mr. Burrito is.  I always keep an eye on the Miss because she tends to be  controlling at times.

I don't know if you guys use this kit calles PAAS but it's a really good one.  It comes with pills (which are the dye), stickers,  labels, and other  stuff that you can use.

These two were my favorites among all of the eggs that we colored.

Pap was cheering on Mr. Burrito so the latter was very inspired to do it.

These eggs will become devilled eggs tomorrow.

How about you, did you color eggs this year?

Shrinky Dinks

When our burritos got sick, there were nothing else to do but to stay inside the house. As I have mentioned before, even when my daughter is sick, she wants to do something (she is like me).  So I  took out some of the  gifts that she received last Christmas,  I hid this in  the closet because they got so many toys  so I let them use the other ones first and reserved some for  later.

She really like this Shrinky Dinks fun pak one that Tita Shy gave her.  The whole family participated into this project.  This craft involves tracing of the drawings, coloring, and baking it afterwards.  Hubby helped in tracing the  drawing while Mr. Burrito help in organizing the stuff we need.  

I only cut and punched holes on the plastic.  Above is a blurry pic that my son took while we were in the kitchen waiting for the craft to be baked.

Here are some of the end product of our labor.  Pretty  cute key chains  with animal  designs in it.  Ms. Burrito did all the coloring.  I hope that the animal on the  key chain qualifies for Camera Critters.

Thank you so much for always dropping by and for leaving me your thoughts, it's always appreciated!
