I went to Staples and color copied and cardstocked this activity from The Friend. We used it during conference to follow along with the speakers. It worked!
I wrote down activities on the sticks and depending on our schedule or Mom's mood, I can say "Choose a blue stick" or "Pick any color." Even though these are mostly activities we do already, choosing them from a magical jar make doing the craft/trip/activity even better!
(I saw this idea used for date ideas on a blog somewhere but tweaked it for my 2 year old)
I was merely the Gluer, not the brains behind these special neckerchief slides. My friend Dawn had me put these beauties together the past 2 Pinewood Derbys. The cub scouts love them. So cool! I need to catalog this so I can remember to do this 10 years down the road when I am in Cubs. I used the E6000 glue.
I made it smaller so we would have less crayons to deal with. It's a 9 x 5 inch roll for 8 crayons instead of 16 1/2 x 5 inch roll that fits 16 crayons. Next time I will probably add another inch to add a little more fabric to roll. The ribbon I did was 15 inches. A little too small too. Still, I like the way it turned out.
