I have definitely had my share of craft fails this year! I have also had several projects that I have loved. Usually the ones that I love or spend the most time on don't end up being super popular though. A successful post for me is one that my son absolutely loves. So, the two that I picked are ones that are stand-out favorites at our house.
1. Escape from the Volcano Shape Game

I had to hide the volcano game pieces because eventually I got tired of having a game board all around my house. My son would've played it all day every day! I should make a smaller version.

Sometimes I feel like I put so much preparation into one of our daily activities/projects and then it's over in an hour (which is why it helps to document it on this blog and get some much needed feedback after all the effort). So - I love when one of them turns into something that the kids want to do over and over, or use again. Here are my top two posts.

I haven't been able to put either of these "away" since the day we made them.
