DIY Coconut Oil Lotion + Free Printable Labels
Sometimes in an effort to simplify, we can end up doing a lot of really un-simple crafts a la Pinterest. I’m always thrilled when we find something the kids can make as gifts that are truly simple, all natural projects. This whipped lotion is that kind of project, with only 3 natural ingredients. It was… Continue reading DIY Coconut Oil Lotion + Free Printable Labels

cooperative game making
It is truly amazing what a group of kids aged 3-11 can dream up and create in a few weeks. Watching them come together, collaborate, and craft this wonderful board game has been a great experience.

I’ve been experiencing some aches and pains and have been trying to turn in earlier, and get a better groove with our rhythms as we turn inward… Continue reading Lately

Along with a couple basil plants, it was nestled into a lovely little home in the planter on our steps, just outside the front door. Throughout the season, we were greeted by the scents shared with us by these herbs, and… Continue reading Cilantro Orange Dressing
