This is the Third in the Series: Cooking with Kids – WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT?
I am not the most craft oriented person – in fact, I used to dread arts and crafts days at school and am not the grandma who has a multiple of crafts around for children to play with. I would much rather cook, make up stories, create music and sound and song. Fortunately creativity comes in different ways – and someone – it came to me as ‘anonymous’ who is clearly good at arts and crafts, came up with some Ideas to Make Life Easier that are so simple and yet so brilliant. It is like that isn’t it though? The most brilliant ideas are the simple ones – the ones to which you have to exclaim – why didn’t I think of that?! I guarantee you’ll be uttering those words more than once at these ingenious little tips, tricks and ideas that solve everyday problems. I will pass them on every Tuesday for the next few weeks. And if you have your own tip that makes life easier, please do put it into the comment section at the bottom of my blog, so that I can publish it and share it with everyone! As I mentioned – this is not my best thing – so I am relying on the collective intelligence of those who are ever so much better at this kind of thing than I am!
Microwave your own popcorn in a plain brown paper bag. Much healthier and cheaper than the packet stuff.
Bake cupcakes directly in ice-cream cones, so much more fun and easier for kids to eat.
Bread tags make the perfect cord labels.
Don’t forget to add your comments below with your ‘make life easier’ tips for the ‘craft-challenged’ like myself and others. And thanks!
