We’ve got some fun and excitement this week! Today I’m featuring over 50 ideas that will transform your summer fun. Everything from sensory play for toddlers to a “to-go” LEGO box for fun! Plus we’ve seen loads of awesome recipes, games, tips and more. Herchel and I had a great time at Blogger Bash and we’re so thankful for having the chance to meet many of the bloggers who link at Family Fun Friday while we were there!
I love all the great FREE homeschooling printables Adeline’s picked and there are some great planners in the long list of bloggers who linked up last week. And Adriane is helping us save money and batten-down our budgeting hatches with her helpful tips. I’m so thankful for these amazing women and this awesome online community!
