Looking for a fun healthy snack? I got this one from FamilyFun.com. http://tinyurl.com/ygvbuyf It is a favorite website for family activities, recipes, gift ideas, etc. All you need is a banana, hotdog bun and a little imagination. Your kids can do this!

Neat Family Craft


Looking for a craft that will involve the whole family? Make a compliment jar. Take a jar or old shoe box and decorate it. You can use construction paper, crayons, or finger paints (if you are brave). Whenever a family member does something worth complimenting - write it down and place it in the jar. Small children can join in the fun by coloring a picture of the action or getting mom or dad to help them write their note. Once a week, sit down as a family an read through the compliment jar. You will be amazed at what praises do for the mood of the family! So get your crayons, get your kids and get to complimenting!
