When I worked at the local museum , we had similar marker holders to these. I have wanted one since! Even with hundreds of kids coming through each day, we rarely lost a marker or had one left to dry out! If you have done art with kids, you know that’s pretty impressive. I wanted […]

Lu’s Got Mail
Y’all, I am so excited about this week’s project. When Jennie and I first started, I only had a laser engraver/cutter and was VERY limited in what I could do as far as toys go. Looking back, I am not super proud of the project. The idea was good, but I have grown so much […]
Key Teether
I decided to design these key teether toys because Brooks LOVED his plastic teether keys we had when he was a baby! He also still really loves keys so I thought this would be a fun project to make as a teether/toy! These are approximately 5 and 1/2 inches tall by 2 1/2 – 3 […]
Woodland Block Set
Our little guy has been wanting to spend all of his time outside exploring, now that the weather is changing. He loves exploring on our land as well as visiting nearby parks and walking paths. His love for playing outside combined with Earth Day tomorrow, I thought I would make him a toy that helps […]
The Delivery Van Toy That Delivered a Humbling Experience
We all know too well the feeling of failure. This week I had this adorable post and project in mind. Lucian LOVES climbing on the couch (usually with our dog) to look out the window and see who is pulling into our driveway. If we are being honest, 99 percent of the time it is […]
Easter and Springtime Projects
Check out our fun Easter Projects! Easter Basket Tags: This was a custom order from someone local. I love how these turned out, so we added them to our Etsy store. You can find these in our Etsy shop, here. Frog Puzzle: Brooks is loving frogs right now! Every time he spots one he says […]
Toddler Marble Maze Toy
These handheld, marble maze toys are so fun for young kids. We plan to take ours with us to the grocery store for Lu to play with in the cart! His busy board and cars are his current favorite cart toys, and this will be a great addition to the rotation! I had fun designing […]
Tangrams
For this project, I wanted to try a new way of coloring the birch we use. We typically use milk paint on our projects when we want to add color, but for this project I wanted to try something new. I looked up some toddler-safe options and found that you can dye the wood using […]
Seesaw Balance Toy
This is an educational toy I have been thinking about making for a while now. Brooks is not developmentally ready for it quite yet but he loves the blocks and he stacks them on the seesaw. I thought about putting it away until he is ready for it but think I am going to leave […]
Farm Blocks
We love animals and Brooks has started showing an interest in chickens and ducks! He LOVES saying “bok bok” and duck. He has gotten where every time we pull in the driveway he says duck and we have to look to see if the ducks/geese are out. He carries the animals for his farm puzzle […]
