"Hornet wear"

A neighbor and friend of mine asked me about making "hornet wear" for her son. Her daughters play volleyball and she wanted her son to have Eureka Hornets shirts to wear to the games. She had great ideas to get me going and I just put the ideas into action! We started with 2 adult t-shirts and came up with these 2 raglan Ts! So cute!
This shirt has a felt "H" for hornets with green yarn stitching.
And this shirt has the hornets colors spelling out "lil bro".
Since I once again forgot to take a before picture, here are the after shots of the t-shirts I used.

Spread the word! I love crafting for YOU!

The letter "M"

Just a quick preschool update. We learned the letter "m" this week. The kids had tons of fun with marble madness that Jayden got for Christmas. Other free time toys were magnets, money, makeup, and Memory. We had milk, mini muffins, and mozarella cheese (string cheese) for our snack. And the kids got to make mittens and moose headbands for craft to go along with our stories The Mitten and If You Give a Moose a Muffin. What fun times!

The letter "T"

For the month of January I am the preschool teacher for Andrew's class:) So, today I taught them the letter "T". We played with trains, tractors, trucks, telephones, tweety, and tutus. Ate teeth(see below), teddy grahams, and Tang for snack. And made turtle tambourines. All of this along with the workbook pages and schoolwork of course! :)

Here are the teeth we made and ate for snack. Do you see the red lips, brown gums, and white teeth? (apple slices, peanut butter, and mini marshmallows)
I think Dylan is trying to get his teeth to snarl :)
Mollie's teeth must be yawning and Andrew's teeth have a bad case of receding bottom gums (I think his apple was just turned around for the picture)
Mason wishes they were HIS teeth!
On to the turtle tambourines made of paper plates and dry beans. I'm not sure how long they will last before beans are all over our houses, but it's a fun idea!
Here they all are!
