Weekly Kid’s Co-Op – DIY Homemade Fun & Games

by The Empowered Educator 1 Comment

It's no secret that I love fun and frugal activities for the toddler twosome…there is just something about watching children play with something you have created yourself.

The ideas are often simple and in my case not usually very artistically pleasing…but they are fun and they are special because we have taken the time to  try and create…and in the process we have begun our own family memories.

I know I often feature homemade toys, gifts and fun but they really are a passion of mine so this week i am again featuring some lovely yet easy creative ideas for play, learning and fun from last week's Kid's Co-Op.

Do you ever create a game, toy or activity for children? The rewards are great I promise! Why not stop by the blogs featured below and try out something new…you might surprise yourself!!
