I'm excited for this new segment because I love to come up with crafts that only take a few minutes. With four little girls, it is easier to do little projects that I can squeeze into my few free moments during the day.
For the first project, I made something that has saved me a few minutes (and a few headaches) because I no longer have to try to remember whose turn it is to do the things that my girls are always fighting over.
I call it:
My Turn!
It was so easy and it really only took me a few minutes to put together!
I used:
Scrapbook paper
Scrapbook sticker letters
Chipboard flowers
Brad
I chose 4 categories that my 4 girls are always fighting over:
Cooking
Crafting
Cleaning
Prayer
I cut out four graduating sized circles in coordinating scrapbook paper. Split the circles into 4. On the green circle I put each of the girls names. On the larger dotted paper I put the four categories. I decorated it with a title, lined up the circles, and pushed the brad through the middle. To hang it, I glued a piece of chipboard to a magnet.
Each morning I turn the name circle so that the girls know what they get a turn at that day. They love it! And I don't have to listen to, "It's my turn!" anymore! Yay!
Brilliant and so easy too! Anything that reduces the conflict deserves cudos.
