		<title>Make your own 4th of July Shirts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my pursuit of getting into the whole summer thing with my kiddos, I figured what better than to make our own shirts for the 4th of July! They were soooo easy to make, the kids love em (they&#8217;ve worn them for 2 straight days now)&#8230;but they are messy! Which I think added to the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=20&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Kid sized greenhouse</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What says summer like a sunflower? Just the name alone implies the bright skies and beauty that fills the summer! To kick off our summer activities, we made our own little greenhouses (out of recycled materials) and planted sunflower seeds.
First we (I say this loosely, cause I actually did it) cut the top off of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=18&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Family Fun Boredom Busters Bit of a Book Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have gotten the Family Fun magazine before and really enjoyed their quick and easy children&#8217;s crafts and activities.  So when I saw it on Amazon&#8217;s Market Place for about $5, I figured how could I go wrong. I just recieved it yesterday in the mail and I am soooo not disappointed! You can find [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=13&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>I so totally caved and a bit of a book review&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok&#8230;so I sounded all big and bad in my last post about putting my foot down with the neighbor kids. Well, it only lasted for about 48 hours.
 
I lost my resolve when the little girl was talking to my dd from the side walk (cause she couldn&#8217;t be in my yard). She told my daughter [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=12&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Handling the neighbor kids</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though I work with 1,300 kids every year&#8230;I am often left to wonder how to handle situations at home. One of the most recent adventures pertains to two of the neighborhood kids that have just recently began playing with my kiddos.
 
It all began innocent enough&#8230;we were gardening in the front yard. They rode by [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=11&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Kids need structure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One thing that will make or break your summer or your sanity for that matter, is providing your kids with some type of structure for the day. Kids thrive on predictability. There is a sense of safety and security knowing what to expect.
 
This is not only true for the days activities but also for consequences [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=somebitsandpieces.wordpress.com&blog=3917448&post=6&subd=somebitsandpieces&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

That means 3 sets of eyes, ears, hands, and feet that need to be kept busy and out of trouble. From my 5 year old daughter to my 21 month old son, they sure do keep me busy!
