Christopher Wren It’s Not

…but someday it might be!

Because face it, there are a lot of clever kids out there. (And some very awesome and clever moms to boot.) So many ideas and examples to learn from!

A big HT to Karen for inspiring me to do this very link-y post. And if I’ve ever left a comment on your blog, please consider yourself included in all of the above. I just ran out of words to link to (as well as the time to do it). The troops are descending for breakfast, you see!

Inspiration for the above activity courtesy of Family Fun magazine. This is a great boredom buster in a pinch!

    Very cool boredom buster. I’ll have to remember that. And my 8 year old is thrilled that you linked her art work. Thanks! Have a great weekend. I’ll be checking in! 😉

    Margaret, you always make me smile. Like you, I couldn’t possibly link to every wonderful blog, but that’s what sidebars are for, right? (But then, over at my place, that needs updating, too!)

    Oh, my kids would have SO much fun with that.
    Thanks for the link Margaret. Though I might scold you as I did Karen for giving me even more wonderful reading material! I hope you’re having a great weekend!

    I love the smiles on those faces! Now, those are the real works of art.
    Thanks so much for linking to our impromptu party. Such a kind and thoughtful blogger you are.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
