Best French Toast EVER!!!

Best French Toast Ever! 
1/4 c. flour
1 c. milk
3 eggs
1/2 t. cinnamon
1 t. vanilla
2 Tbs. sugar
pinch of salt
10-12 slices bread
Wiz this up in the blender! Except the bread of course.  The worst thing about regular French toast with cinnamon in it is the first slice of bread gets all the cinnamon that floats on top of the egg batter.  Not this one, its mixed in so good, all the pieces are created equal.  Its just so good, must try!

cabin fever buster

Shaving cream paint for the bathtub.
Put shaving cream in a muffin tin, filling each cup almost full.  Add 2-3 drops of food coloring to each cup (mixing colors is a fun learning tool too) Stir with paint brush. 
Let child paint the tub, themselves, or each other. 
Spray off with the shower, it will not leave any color on the tub or the kids.  Just FUN!!!

Winter Animals Week - Free templates and craft

Welcome back! If you took a school break, that is.   Next week is Winter Animal week at our house we'll be talking about hibernation (leading into Groundhogs day soon) Migration and the animals that stay here.  Where they live, where they go, what they do, etc.   We will be making Ice Bird Feeders (scroll down)  to hang outside for the birdies that stay here.   Use these templates to color, glue on cotton balls (unwind) for snow covered ground and labels to learn about these animals.  Have fun!! 







Ice Bird Feeder, mix water and birdseed, put in a muffin tin or freezable container, add string (while its still watery, push the string down in the seed and leave the loop hanging out)  and freeze well.  It sure won't thaw out around here anytime soon!!!!
Make sure the string is long enough to go over a branch.
