Virtual Summer Camp with Babble

Wednesday, June 12, 2013 3 Comments

 

When I was asked to be part of Virtual Summer Camp with Babble – I was, first – beyond thrilled!  And, second – it reminded me of the many summers spent at Camp Tockwogh, and of time there as a camper, and then eventually a counselor.  Although the camp was located on the water, and specialized in water activities like water skiing, wind surfing, & sail boating, my absolute favorite part was the arts & crafts/jewelry making classes.  haha – go figure – ME, like arts & crafts/jewelry making?!  Well, I never!

So, with that, I’m sure you can guess the direction I will be going for my craft/activity as part of Virtual Summer Camp, can’t you?!

And, since I am not ready to fully unveil what we will be creating for Virtual Summer Camp, I think I can give you a hint, right?!

I can tell you it involves arts & crafts/jewelry making!

I can tell you it also involves this!

We will share kid’s activities, family fun ideas, recipes and crafts that are simple and creative. We will also share learning activities for some extra fun! Join our online community (info. below) to get more tips, activities and inspiration to make a Summer Bucket list to help you be more intentional.

When your friend loves science just as much as you When your friend loves science just as much as you do.

These two... I couldn’t get them to walk away from our science table.

🐚🌊☀️When we went to the beach last week, V found this spiral thingee (official term 😆) way far back on the sand, near the dunes... it had obviously washed up a long time ago.  She brought it to us & my mom (PHD science professor-lol good to have one of those in your back pocket, huh?!) identified it as a Whelk Egg Casing. 

🔍🧐 🐚After Googling, based on the details of the casing, we determined it is an egg casing from a Knobbed Welk. 

🐚🔍🕵🏼‍♀️Whelk eggs are fertilized internally and laid in capsule packets. Strings of these connected egg capsules are usually one to three feet in length, comprised of up to 160 capsules, and each casing containing 40-100 eggs. These eggs are SUPER TINY - ALREADY FORMED - LITTLE BABY SHELLS (swipe to the last shot)!!! The mother whelk anchors one end of the string onto rocks, shells, or sand on the sea floor for safety. Apparently, only about one percent will hatch successfully. If they emerge successfully from the egg case, they can expect to live for about 10 to 15 years if they reach maturity.

Pretty cool huh?! #youlearnsomethingneweveryday

📣📣📣I’ve Got Some Big News!! 🤗🤩🥰After a LOT of hard work behind the scenes for the past several months, I'm so excited to finally announce that I have a new book coming out, The 5-Minute Gratitude Journal for Kids. 

💙💛💚
Encourage gratitude and positivity with 5-minute journal prompts for kids ages 8 to 12. "Thinking positive thoughts can help kids see their lives differently and feel more grateful every day. Nurture this sense of positivity with a gratitude journal for kids that’s packed with thoughtful questions, creative prompts, inspirational quotes, and fun ideas for activities." 

💜🧡❤️
I would love you to support my book. You can pre-order your copy now on Amazon.

Annnnd I turned it into a free printable for ya by Annnnd I turned it into a free printable for ya by slapping a quote on it 😉🤗 #linkinbio 

https://www.mamamiss.com/blog/2021/04/01/adjusting-focus/

“When we focus on our gratitude, the tide of disappointment goes out and the tide of love rushes in.” - Kristin Armstrong

Print it out and hang it in your workspace, or the hallway, or the bedroom mirror as inspiration…. to reframe the ol’ noggin and focus on the gratitude and the things that are most important to us.

oh & p.s. 🤫🤗🤩🥳

I will be sharing an exciting announcement next week! Be sure to stay tuned and keep an eye out, I can’t wait to share this news with you!!!!!!!

Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝 We’ve had this Loose Parts Tray 🔩⚙️🗝

We’ve had this loose parts tray since my kids were wee little ones and it is still utilized to this day.  I just happened to catch a kiddo mid-way through mandala making today. 

🌀💠🔆You can theme it out however you want - nature parts, color parts... think beads, buttons, bits & bobs... take a stroll down the small parts aisle at the craft store or your local hardware store to find some inspiration. 

🖇📏🧮 I love how loose part trays allow open-ended creative play.  Kiddos can explore the different textures and shape concepts in the tray to create structures, free play, or even work on math!

💡What would you use your loose parts tray for?
