I love these ideas and you are so organized! You're kids are fortunate and shouldn't be bored.
ReplyDeleteIncredible what all you have there -- seems like a great way to be prepared for the ineviatble "I'm bored!"
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea! I love how you have everything in one place.
ReplyDeleteAwesome summer board!
ReplyDeleteDid you get the invite to join my tribe on triberr? Once you join the tribe, your blog posts automatically get tweeted by the 7 other members of your tribe. there isn't any extra work involved. You now can be in more than one tribe. No pressure either way, just wanted to touch base.
happy SummeR!
I love how you have organized this board. It's filled with so many wonderful things too. Thanks for linking up to the summertime fun party.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! We sure could use one of these!
