Hey there!
It’s a little wild out there right now, so come on in and enjoy a little peace.
I’m Ellen. A bit over ten years ago, I was a young mom, looking for quality crafts and activities for my busy boys.
We didn’t have the budget for a color printer, and I certainly didn’t have the time or energy to be hunting down obscure supplies for the crafts I was finding on Pinterest. And the stuff I was finding out there? Wasn’t that great of quality…
So I put my graphic design skills to work, and started creating the crafts that my kids wanted…
They were happy and engaged, and I could see them inspiring their own creativity.
And I bought myself a little time back to breathe.
So I started sharing them on this little blog.
And something pretty awesome happened…
Parents started using them.
Teachers wrote in about how helpful they were for unit studies and classroom activities.
Grandparents told me they were downloading them for their grandkids.
Librarians were printing them for events.
From co-ops to churches, classrooms to homes, people were downloading the crafts and making an impact not only in their own lives but in the lives of kids.
Just to say thank you for everything and making a busy teacher’s life easier and happier! 🙂
