Melted Crayon Pumpkin

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
I saw this on another blog a week ago and I can't remember where...so I'm sorry I can't give you credit!  


So I started doing this with my daughter using the hair dryer but the crayons fell off from the air of the hair dryer.  So my hubby came over and started helping.  Then he got a great idea and went to the  garage and came back with his heat gun and I think he had more fun then Selah and I.  WE LOVED IT!  :) 
First with the hair dryer. 

Moved onto the heat gun.  

ALL DONE!  


Some of the color's mixed and we got to talk about what colors would make when mixed together.

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.   This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :)  It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)   I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!

It made my experience much quicker then other programs I have used online.  The scrapbook software was very easy to download on my computer and did not take long to learn how to create.  :) One feature t
