Repp Stripe Necktie Collection by PUCCINI

Repp Stripe Necktie

Review:

Super handsome ties at super great prices from Bows N Ties. My hubby has not bought a new tie in a very long time and when I saw this promo I knew he would enjoy trying a new tie. Some of the color descriptions were a little off putting in reading them BUT when my husband opened the package he said, “That is one sexy tie!”

The tie had a really nice feel to it and was easy to tie. The material wasn’t super slick and troublesome like satin ties. It was a great balance of texture and durability. I received the Aubergine Purple & Berry Pink Striped Tie and chose to wear a black dress shirt. Other options would be a white dress shirt with suit coat or for a more casual look khakis.

one tie two looks

I could see some of this collection of ties being a great addition to any man’s Spring Wardrobe while others would be for Summer or Fall. The colors would be great for weddings, prom, or Easter dinner. The Repp Stripe Necktie Collection by PUCCINI are a great value for the money starting just under $10.00.

Tot School- Dr. Seuss Style Tot Trays

Tot School- Dr. Seuss Style Tot Trays

 

 

I may finally be ahead of the game so to speak! I keep saying that I will participate in “Virtual Book Club for Kids” and then forget to see which author is picked for the month! Low and behold I came across the announcement that Dr. Seuss was the next author. The perfect choice since I had planned to share some Tot Trays with Dr. Seuss Style anyways!

Dr. Seuss- Something 2 Offer

Last year for Big Red’s 2nd birthday we had a Dr. Seuss theme. I created some activities for Tot School then, but was not blogging and have not shared them, yet! Plus we have lots of new things to share. This first post will showcase TEN Dr. Seuss Themed Tot Trays!

Busy Bags in Action

November 1, 2012 By Thaleia 6 Comments

Wanna See Busy Bags in Action?

busy bags

Well, here is your chance. I’ve talked about busy bags before. I’ve talked about the busy bags I want to make. You see posts all over the blogosphere about busy bags swaps and making busy bags, but rarely do you see kids playing or using busy bags! I took two of my newest super loaded busy bags with me to my Preschool CC Childcare class. Boy were those kids excited to play with some new things. (We set out table type toys each week to help them transition into playing with us and forget that mommy left them.)I took the Little Scientist and Mini Office busy bags that I had blogged about at All Our Days.

Recycled Materials Scarecrow Tutorial

October 12, 2012 By Thaleia 4 Comments

How to Build a Scarecrow from

Recycled Materials!

Toddler Scarecrow 101- scarecrow tutorial

Supplies:

OLD/OUTGROWN CLOTHES: Tennis Shoes, Jeans, Long Sleeved shirt or Sweatshirt

Socks- that fit youth shoe sizes 1-4~

Bamboo poles- the skinnier the better 4′ tall

Masking tape, Clear Packaging Tape or Duct Tape

Recyclables- Hugs Juice, soup cans, milk jugs, butter tubs,etc (make sure they are washed and dried)

Hammer, Awl, Screwdrivers

PLENTY OF Imagination!

  1. Gather ALL supplies that you THINK you may need. (you’ll probably scramble around the house as new ideas emerge.)
  2. Start off with bamboo poles and clothes. Lay the clothes out and see how it looks.
  3. Poke holes through soles of shoes. Use hammer and awl. Then use various sizes of screwdrivers to make hole big enough to slide onto bamboo pole.

With soft plastic like the Hugs juice, you can use an awl to poke a hole and then a couple of screwdrivers that increase in size to make the hole large enough to slide onto the bamboo pole.

Poke holes through your containers and then poke holes through socks and shoes. Thread stuffed toed socks onto bamboo poles. Be sure to tuck toes into shoes and then thread shoes onto poles. Put soup can or bottles onto poles and pull socks up. Drop pants onto poles and proceed to thread containers increasing in size onto the poles.

Find a fat container (bucket, ice cream tub, Easter basket, etc) for the waist to hold pants up. If pants cannot be tightened to hold container then hot glue waist onto container. Add a couple large containers for torso. Drop on shirt.

Create arms by using skinny hugs or water bottles for arms. Use applesauce or greek yogurt or easy mac containers for shoulders. If threading on bamboo angle the holes on the shoulder containers as shown in pictures.

10 Busy Bags I Want to Make

September 15, 2012 By Thaleia 13 Comments

10 Busy Bags I Want NEED to Make

Making your own busy bags can save SOOO much money and frustration! If you have a toddler or preschooler who you have to take with you to the doctor’s, ballet class, or homeschool group and they need to be kept occupied, then busy bags are the answer!

10 Busy Bags I Need to Make
I tried to find 10 busy bags that I already had the supplies for, but had not had the time to create,yet.  I do use the zippered pencil pouches that fit into 3-ring binder on a jumbo ring for on the go.  These are great for in the car or when we have to go somewhere unexpected. I am going to start childcare for a local Classical Conversation group next week and wanted to switch out our busy bags so Lil’ Red would have something new to explore if he got bored with the kids or the selection of toys.

Need some simple yet educational ways to keep your kids busy? #toddler #preschool
