Grant had fun watching me make it. He only lasts about 5 minutes at a time playing with it. But it only took me 30 seconds to make and it was free so I guess that's pretty good!

I needed some new fine motor activities for my students. I'm totally going to make this!!!
Sweet, that is a great idea I will have to remember that one. Thanks
I was really worried you were going to tell me that you gave a hammer and nails to your toddler...
:)
You're so creative!
You are such a good mommy! How cute are you? I just wanted to drop a quick line & tell you hellp & see how you were doing! I really want to try to get all of us together before I leave (which is in about 5 weeks!) so let me know when you are free! Love ya!
Great idea! I'm going to have to try this with Peyton.
That's a really cute idea! And it's always nice when it's free! That idea might come in handy when Brooklyn is older.
This is a really cute idea! Carter has an odd fascination with toothpicks, so I'll definitely be making this! :)
From me? I don't even remember showing you that, but it was something Claire loved when she was that age. Too bad she's not that easy any more :)
Kristine,
I was clicking on the other Apron Girls links and came across you. You look like you have a cute little family and happy life. Glad I found you!
