I was a total bookworm when I was a kid. I was the little girl who took books to the beach and read my summer vacation away. I had an insatiable appetite for all things written- books, magazines, cereal boxes, etc. You know what I didn’t like, though? Numbers. Numbers were far too cut and…

With four avid toddler/preschool readers in our home, our books also suffer wear and tear and need fixing (and sometimes replacing) often. That’s why when I saw a few books on Amazon for less than $3 a piece, I was like…
Do you have a favorite apple? Maybe you like bright green granny smiths or juicy red delicious…I’m a pink lady or honeycrisp lover or myself (hubby and kids prefer gala, though). Today’s preschool art project was actually inspired by our apple snack (did you notice we kept the apple’s label to add to the art above?)…
