Quick, fun projects for the "I'm Bored" days!
Children will have a blast making or helping you make their own scrapbook page. Scrapbooking can be as simple or complicated as you choose. A piece of paper, a few pictures, and a marker for captions can turn a day at the beach into a timeless memory. If you want to create something more detailed and fancy then Scrapbooking Layouts has plenty of ideas to get you started. Fun Videos
Lion King - Circle of Life
The Rhino Song
I believe that children are our future.
Teach them well and let them lead the way.
Show them all the beauty they possess inside.
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier.
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be.
Love You Forever
"A mother held her new baby and very slowly rocked him back and forth, back and forth, back and forth..."
Amazon Price: $5.95 (as of 01/08/2010) 
Goodnight Moon
Perhaps the perfect children's bedtime book, Goodnight Moon is a short poem of goodnight wishes from a young rabbit preparing for--or attempting to postpone--his own slumber. He says goodnight to every object in sight and within earshot, including the "quiet old lady whispering hush."
Amazon Price: $8.99 (as of 01/08/2010)
Guess How Much I Love You
All children want reassurance that their parents' love runs wide and deep. In Guess How Much I Love You, a young rabbit named Little Nutbrown Hare thinks he's found a way to measure the boundaries of love. In a heartwarming twist on the "I-can-do-anything-you-can-do-better" theme, Little Nutbrown Hare goes through a series of declarations regarding the breadth of his love for Big Nutbrown Hare. But even when his feelings stretch as long as his arms, or as high as his hops, Little Nutbrown Hare is fondly one-upped by the elder rabbit's more expansive love.

Gifts from the heart
The simplest and most versatile gifts are gift baskets. Gift baskets can reflect the seasons, holidays, and can be tailored to the recipients likes. You should try to personalize each basket, since that is what makes these gifts so unique. Some of our favorites have been:
The fishermans basket - Dad loved this one for Father's Day.
We used a fish basket (the cheap wire kind, but you could also use the fancier bamboo creoles used for trout), which we filled with fish breading, Dad's favorite seasoning mix, a bottle of high quality frying oil, and a lure. My son also included a handmade certificate entitling Dad to one afternoon of Dad's choosing for Father/Son time. Our son is growing older and involved with friends and sports, so the certificate was especially meaningful to Dad.
