mormon in the making skip to main skip to sidebar mormon in the making friday april 9 2010 file folder games in an attempt to keep my kiddos a little quieter during our weekly church meetings i decided to make some file folder games these were a lot of fun to do and i look forward to finishing the rest of them here is how i did it supplies needed 1 file folder game books or come and borrow mine i ve already paid for it so save yourself some money they can also be found online copies of the games colored and cut out file folders i cut mine down to fit my laminating sheets if you plan on taking your folders to kinkos or somewhere to laminate you can leave them full size glue or tape to attach the sheets to the folder above the supplies gathered and ready to go this particular game is a rhyming game they need to match the pictures up with words that rhyme car star tie pie etc once your papers are mounted on the folder simply laminate spotlight review i have this wonderful laminating machine that i received as an early birthday gift from my hubby it is called the your story machine not only does it laminate but it also binds books let me tell you that it has been the best thing ever i have had sooo much fun with it if you ever need to laminate some things give me a call after laminating all the pieces simply cut out using velcro or magnets attach small pieces to both the file folder and on the game pieces we plan on taking a few of these in the car for our disneyland trip i hope the kiddos like them posted by jessica at 12 28 am 4 comments labels crafts games learning travel thursday april 8 2010 homemade laundry soap howdy for some odd reason my previous post on laundry soap has disappeared the good news is that i have the recipe the bad news is that i won t be posting any pictures today i still have 5 gallons of soap in my basement waiting to be used so i don t need to make any more just yet o i hope the instructions do it justice have fun 4 cups of hot water 1 fels naptha soap bar grated into small pieces 1 2 cup of borax 1 cup of washing soda large pot 5 gallon bucket with lid 1 add grated soap bar to hot water in a large pot cook over medium heat until all soap is melted stir frequently to prevent it from sticking and burning to the pot 2 using the 5 gallon bucket fill half full with hot water next add the washing soda and borax stir until dissolved 3 slowly add the melted soap mix everything very well 4 now fill the rest of the bucket with hot water mix well 5 place lid on bucket and let mixture sit overnight it will thicken up into a gel to use add gel mixture to a 1 gallon container or any laundry soap container fill up container with 1 2 soap gel and 1 2 water shake to mix for top loading machines use approx 5 8 cup per load shake container well before each use powdered recipe if you prefer powdered laundry soap all you need to do is add grated soap bar washing soda and borax using a food processor mix ingredients until it makes a fine powder add about 1 tbsp per load of laundry posted by jessica at 1 26 am 1 comment labels household recipes saving wednesday april 7 2010 feeding your family on a budget hello first off i d like to welcome any new readers that attended my feeding your family on a budget class last night i hope you learned something new as i began my post for today i thought it

with this wintery weather pass along in peace i decided to blog about a snowman kit that was given to us as a gift this past winter the real winter not this fake one that we are currently facing so here is what it is 1 basic felt hat simply sew the fabric into circles and add a nice brim 1 felt scarf super easy cut felt into a long strip and clip the ends 8 or so wooden circles with a hole in one end 8 or so dowels that will fit into the end of the wooden ball 1 can of black spray paint paint the wooden balls and dowels black 1 plastic carrot snow my kiddos simply piled the snow in the yard and patted it firm using the dowel circle buttons press them into the snow to make eyes a mouth if desired and buttons decorate the snowman using the remaining parts my kiddos loved this project in april looking outside right now it looks like we might be able to do it again tomorrow happy snowy spring everyone posted by jessica at 1 32 am 1 comment labels crafts fun monday april 5 2010 great finds at target once again target has proven itself to be a great place for bargains i hit the riverdale store late this morning to find some easter clearance they had some fun basket stuffers for 50

monday morning and haven t felt like doing much lately op but here i am today looking at the mess that accumulated while mommy took a few days off what a joke i think the biggest joke of all is that my craft items ie laminator book bindings felt sewing projects etc etc etc have no home if my laptop was fixed this is where i would download a picture of my pathetic craft bin in our room it would scare you trust me so this is where i need your help what has worked for you as far as organizing your craft sewing project etc items in your home is there a trick or tip that you have found valuable in containing the clutter if so leave a comment at the end of this post hopefully we can all find some suggestions and solutions to help solve this craft dilemma thanks so much posted by jessica at 1 27 pm 2 comments labels learning monday march 29 2010 puzzle pockets some of you might have seen this on my facebook page awhile back but i thought this would be a better place to file it o puzzles are a huge hit at our house but keeping the pieces together is a chore to remedy this i used some felt and my sewing machine to make a pocket to store the pieces in step one measure your puzzle cut two pieces of felt to fit on the back of the board make one piece 2 inches larger than the other this will allow room to make the flap on the pocket step two sew around the felt making a pocket i used velcro to fasten my pocket make sure to leave a pleat in the fabric when sewing to allow proper room for the pieces to fit using tacky glue place the pocket on the back of the puzzle allow to dry overnight step three once puzzle is dry open pocket and place pieces inside easy peasy these pockets have been a sanity saver for this mommy my kids know that they are expected to place all of the pieces back into the pocket when they are finished playing we haven t lost a puzzle piece in months hurray posted by jessica at 1 00 am no comments labels crafts games sewing older posts home
