With the insane number of video games that are released on a yearly basis it’s next to impossible to keep up and most are forgotten almost as soon as they come around. However, every once in awhile a game will come along to captivate gamers of all ages and be destined to go down in the video game hall of…
disclaimer: I received product in exchange for my honest review. We have always been a DIY family. Em and I can often be found crafting away on a project when we are together.

This took about an hour to put together, but it is a good project to work on while watching tv or a movie. I love how inexpensive…

I have to be honest though that after seven years I seem to have lost all sense of creativity when it comes to playing with Play-Doh. I feel like I’ve made my fair share of snakes and snowballs.…

I found a great collection of Kids Crafts for Thanksgiving to share with you. I hope your kids have a blast getting in…
