We received a couple of the National Geographic Starry Night Lanterns from Uncle Milton Toys. The kids each have a stuffed animal that projects stars on their ceiling. The kids love that and so they are used to having glowing stars on their ceilings. We don’t always take these with us when we go on trips and so this past Thanksgiving we went to the Cape and instead of taking the stuffed animals we decided to try out the Starry Night Lantern. It worked very well and Eva liked having this new field of stars to see as she went to sleep.
During the middle of the Give it Forward Project I got the opportunity to get a My Circle of Creativity for sharing a post on Facebook about the company’s special edition My Friendship Bracelet Maker kit on QVC. Well, it arrived yesterday and I decided that I would donate it to Christmas is for Kids. The My Circle of Creativity kit is for ages 6 and up and it can do a bunch of different creative projects. We reviewed the My Friendship Bracelet Maker earlier in the month and it was something that is really nice but Eva was just not ready for it. Allison could make some great friendship bracelets but neither Eva nor I was able to do much. I do believe that Eva will get into making Friendship bracelets at some point and she’ll use that kit and if at that time she’s interested in the My Circle of Creativity set I’ll pick one up for her.
