Hermes seem to have updated their website and the paper Hermes Bag is no longer available, however I found this site that had the paper template still available and if you have design inclinations, then you should be able to enlarge it. Or print out and scan in to enlarge ;-

However, Hermes now have a bracelet available for downloading and making that looks really cute – maybe for avant garde napkin rings?

Play and Learn Family Activities from Fisher Price.

This looks like a really interesting site, you can choose activities based on the age of your children – great organisation and navigation on a website by the way.

This special vanilla dough handles like modeling clay, but it also makes delicious cookies. Use this activity to strengthen your child’s alphabet skills, to make place cards for children’s birthday parties, or just to make a delicious treat.

Forget about restrictive cookie cutters – follow this recipe, I’m sure it will assist in letter recognition.

Gardening if fun Cover

As spring hit us in full force, the urge to plant and create in the garden has inspired us to get our hands dirty. I found this great book for kids this past week and have found it really useful and inspiring. Great ideas to be found for kids to execute. Available at Exclusive Books.

Actually the inspiration behind all this comes from the following book, published by We are what we do:

Teach your granny to Text

And one of the things, Action #03: Grow something and eat it, reminded me of the importance to teach our children the things we already take for granted. Support this fantastic cause.
