My children both love to draw so I thought it might be fun to design some cute animal drawing prompts for kids. There are two designs, one of a giraffe and one of some puppies – I think I might be a bit in love with that pug?! I’ve added prompts to each picture either for older kids to read themselves or for you to read to your kids, can they add some food for the animals? How about some sun for the giraffe or an owner for the dogs?

Recently we’ve been sharing a lot of sensory play ideas with flowers so I thought I’d round them all up as well as adding some great ideas from some of my favourite bloggers. Kids love playing with flowers, I think after being told that they can’t grab hold of everything in the garden or park getting permission to play with and explore them is really enjoyable. It’s a great way to celebrate the warmer weather too, plus, lets be honest, they all look kinda pretty and there’s nothing wrong with enjoying that either!

Today we’ve been making making this sweet dragonfly suncatcher craft. I don’t know about you but I think there’s something quite magical about dragonflies, I don’t get to see many and when I do they always look like they’ve flown straight out of a Harry Potter novel or something!
Both me and my daughter are obsessed with contact paper, me because it’s cheap and makes pretty stuff and it’s fab with crafts like this for fine motor skills so it makes for great crafts for toddlers.
She loves the feel of it and the bright colours so this was a great craft for after preschool.
