makingmondays, please e-mail me your address so I can get this book out to you

As you can see I waited until the last minute (welcome to my life) for the winner to be chosen.  Precious Aleah picked this one out of a hat after she was already in bed.  I don’t think she minded a little extra awake time.

Thanks Emily for the book giveaway and thanks for the comments and love.

Book Giveaway

9 Sep

We have a book giveaway for y’all.

Here is the book you can win-

We all have times where we have a couple hours to kill with our kids before lunch, nap time, dinner, sporting event or whatever.  This book would be a wonderful resource for those in between times since they are relatively easy and very kid friendly projects.

Take paint and water it down a bit, put a blob on your paper and then blow through a straw to splatter the paint into weird shapes.

We added google eyes and then added wings and smiles and feet using markers.

I know Aleah and Sophi loved making these monsters.  And I was just glad we could do this outside =)

They are now all over our kitchen protecting our food and cups and plates.  The kids think it is pretty hilarious and love saying, “Look out behind you!  There is a big monster!!!”

This book giveaway is brought to you by Emily who has a blog over here and is also a Usborne Book consultant.  Comment away for your chance to win.  I will let you know who the winner is on Thursday and the comments will count until then.  Good luck!
