When we have the chance, our family likes to get to out and explore. Fortunately for us, we live in the Bay Area so there's a lot to do. This weekend we took the kids to the
Charles M. Schulz Museum. There was something there for everyone (adults & kids), from art exhibits to drawing your own cartoons.
There's my comic loving son making a cartoon for the
zoetrope.
The museum has a education room for kids where they can draw cartoons and fold origami snoopy houses. My children must have spent a good half hour in that room drawing.
Once they were done drawing the cartoons they placed them in the
zoetrope to watch their cartoons come alive.
By the way, there's a great tutorial on
Dollar Craft on how to make a
zoetrope if you're interested.
Did any of you do anything fun for President's day weekend? Please share in the comments.
Hooray, my craft idea actually worked out this time! So, it with great pride that I give you the chalkboard name tag tutorial, fun and eco-friendly. Now, I just need a good excuse to use them. Craft party anyone?
Supplies:
1. Paint wood disks ( 4-5 coats). Let dry overnight.

Celebrate President's Day with this easy origami dollar picture frame. I found the directions to this origami frame at Money Origami. This frame is simple to fold and a good project for beginners.
Whitney from Whisker Graphics suggested I make some generic templates for these Superhero Valentines. I thought that was a great idea so I whipped up a new template. Use them for birthday party favors or a super sweet treat. Template below.
