Spark Summer Time Creativity With Juicy Juice + Crayola #UltimatePlaydate #CollectiveBias
DIY Juice Box Art Caddy #UltimatePlaydate #CollectiveBias
As a parent I have always encouraged my daughter to explore activities she enjoys and those that help her grow. This includes playtime. In our home playtime is just another outlet for learning.

Using paper plates and a brown box flap, I assembled a Christmas tree for Toodie to paint. When she was all done personalizing her tree we hung it by the door to greet guests during the holiday festivities this week.
