Since I am sitting here melting in the 111* heat ... with just a small fan on me.... I thought I would post a few fun ideas...It's not so hot if I am just vegging out in a chair ;)
I always get a smile when I see little children's chalk drawing on the sidewalks... Here is a fun tutorial on how to make your own chalks that spray out of a bottle ;)

Such bright vivid colors just what us kids like to see and play with ;)
One can always use fun ideas to keep our little ones busy while traveling in the car.. this is a fantastic idea.

I made very cute sewing repair kits one year for Christmas that I gave my friends, that were made out of potholders. I had scissors, needle threader, threads, needles and thimble in mine.. they were a real hit with my friends.
