Gardens + Imagination = Excellent Game for Kids!

This cheerful Gathering a Garden game is a breath of fresh air! Take a trip to each vendor to gather some flowers, vegetables, and more for your bounty of garden delights. Lorna tells me that the game is so inviting that when Chris (my son, her husband, father to the kids) got home and it was still on the table, he played with the kids… during dinner! which he never does.

I have a few games in stock for right now in celebration of spring and Easter. It is for ages 5 and up, no plastic pieces. Shop here for Gathering a Garden.

This game is from eeBoo, a woman-owned specialty toy and gift company based in New York City committed to designing products that encourage curiosity, imagination, and creativity in people of all ages. Gathering a Garden is a winner of the Oppenheim Gold Award.

Where to put your thread?

I have kept my spools of thread in Sterlite drawer units for years, but no more. I finally realized that the Yazzii Ultimate Thread Organizer is for more than just carrying your thread from place to place. They are the perfect way to store your thread!

You can order one from me here online. If I am out of the color you want, please do email Lorna because we will order more and she will let you know when they come in.

Wednesday Giveaway…

Jean Kearney is this week’s winner and she will receive a pack of 50 Magic Fine Quilting Pins. They are 0.5mm thick and 1 3/4″ long and don’t melt under the heat of an iron. If you are not Jean and would like some of these pins, you can find them here 🙂.

Easter basket presents for kids…

Lorna and Judy spend time searching for toys mostly for Bear. They focus on nice toys that make him use his imagination and his brain and that don’t require technology. When they find the right ones, I add them to the site because you might want them for your own special young ‘uns. First up are the Dino Dominoes.

Lorna gave a set to Edward, who is a dinosaur lover. The box says for ages 3 and up which is right where Edward is. Here he is opening the box:

His mom, Sarah sent pictures of him playing with them…

The Dino Dominoes are made of sturdy cardboard and they are the right size for small hands. They are bright and happy and kids can play with them and learn things without realizing that they are learning things. I didn’t order many sets and I’m not sure I can get more before Easter so order soon :-). Click here for Easter Crafts & Toys.

Wednesday Giveaway…

Linda Burger is this week’s lucky winner! she will receive a 4-in-1 Essential Sewing Tool. I use the ripper (from Bernina!) the most. And, yes, I do have to rip and I don’t like it any more than you do 😂😂😂.
