Valentines craft -- love birds Babyccino Kids: Daily tips, Children's products, Craft ideas, Recipes & More

February 14, 2014

Happy Valentines Day! Our kids woke us up with the sweetest handmade Valentines cards this morning… But I had nothing prepared! So I quickly made these ‘lovebirds’, by folding a piece of paper in half and cutting it in a heart shape. A piece of masking tape keeps it closed and forms the beak. Inside I wrote little love message and poems. So when the kids come home from school they will have a little surprise waiting for them!

DIY: Weaving Loom Made from a Shoe Box!

I wanted to get Tila a weaving kit for a while now but anytime I asked her she never seemed too interested. And then a Sunday came when she wanted to do nothing else but weave! And this is how this idea to make a loom from a shoe box lighted up in my head! ...

DIY: sock puppets

I think it is a classic to make puppets out of socks. But it is something we have never done at home. Last weekend we finally did it and it is a nice way to spend an evening. It is a really easy DIY and very fun. I very much like changing "normal" things into ...

Easy Christmas craft: ribbon and stick christmas trees

Around this time every year we take our kids off to our local garden center to pick out a small Christmas tree for the corner of their bedroom. I did the same growing up and I can remember the excitement of choosing my very own tree, opening my special box of decorations and falling asleep ...

Loom bands

I've heard that loom bands have been around for a while already in other parts of the world, but here in the Netherlands they've suddenly made their appearance in the last few months. And now, they are everywhere. If you've missed the fuss -- loom bands basically are little elastic bands in a rainbow of colours, that ...

DIY: Dipped Wooden Spoons

I’ve been eyeing the dipped wooden spoons for a while now and the penny pincher in me decided to make something similar on her own instead of buying them. And they turned out great, plus the feeling of making something with my own two hands is priceless (when it succeeds anyway). This project is also ...

Symmetry sculptures

While I'm not a control freak, I have grown accustomed to having a lot of kids under my control at one time. And, I think I'm good at it. I run a fairly tight ship in terms of schedules and expectations, but am pretty relaxed when it comes to general raucousness and chaos. There are always ...

Biology and Beauty -- Hatching Butterflies at Home

While on holiday last month, we received the most exciting parcel in the mail. On the box, it said 'LIVE INSECTS, OPEN IMMEDIATELY!’ And sparked a lot of curiosity and excitement. We opened up the box, a gift sent from our very clever friends, and inside was a cup of caterpillars waiting to become butterflies! ...

Needle (or dry) felting

My kids (and I) have a new hobby: needle (dry) felting. We really love it! It's incredibly easy to do, and so fun. Relaxing too -- the rhythmic movement of poking the needle in the wool is actually really nice. For needle felting you need just a few supplies: a sponge (a simple kitchen sponge works fine), some ...

A DIY wooden warrior friend from Conscious Craft

Over the summer my children received this cool wooden ninja construction kit, available from one of my favourite toys & crafts shops, Conscious Craft. It was a curious little package -- a box full of wooden construction pieces, steel bolts, and allen keys. Thankfully a clear instruction leaflet was included, or otherwise we would have been lost. Because DIY kits ...

DIY: Pom-Poms

A couple of weekends ago it was yet another snowy, wet, cold weekend in Paris and crafting was an absolute necessity. I think there is possibly nothing worse then bored kids hanging around an apartment on a snowy, wet day. But in this case, Agathe, Coco's little friend was over for a playdate and she ...
