CREATIVE FINDS

There is something almost cathartic about making bracelets together and I can tell you we have done this so many times, including at a cousins party where all the boys (As I expected) had just as much fun as the girls did. And it's just as relaxing when you do it with adults too!

Making LEGO flowers with my kids brings me immense joy. Watching their creativity blossom feels truly magical. Plus, I love knowing that this activity helps them develop their fine motor skills and problem-solving abilities.

I love how much my creativity flows when I am using these dice. They have great prompts and work easily for me or my kids to get inspired! There are perfect for a mistakes journal to get your creative juices flowing and to practice messing up to get better!

I absolutely love this hand balm! As someone who washes my hands frequently while creating, it’s a lifesaver. It keeps my hands soft and moisturized, and the best part is the delicious scent! It’s become an essential part of my routine!

I love how perfectly all of my art projects and tools fit into here. It even has a soft pouch for my ipad so i can do digital art on the go and several pockets to fit paintbrushes, pens notebooks and more! I travel a lot and this makes it so much easier to bring my art along!

We talk a LOT about making mistakes in class and how it's a good thing for creativity! It can be so challenging though to believe. I love the way this book portrays it and we read this exact book to our young students!

With a family of 5 ADHD members we have a TON of creativity buzzing in our home and as well as sensory overload! My youngest loves using his sensory suit to help him stay connected and with us when he's feel a need for some squishes!

The best part about watercolor is how portable it is! And these journals make it so you can take your skills virtually anywhere! I love using mine on camping trips, or trips to the beach!

Finding unique kits can be tough but these glow in the dark seashell paints really were a great find! My kids loved finishing their art and then running off to check them out in a dark room. I highly reccomend these ones

These cookie cutters make the perfect cookies BUT I love using them as stamps for watercolor paintings. They create the perfect shapes to make creating something the whole family can enjoy

My son loves to practice drawing his favorite anime characters with this light up drawing pad. It's super great to practice new skills and challenge yourself to do objects you've never tried drawing before

These are adorable as a Valentine but they are also a great Party favor! I love doing party favors that are unique and keep the creativity going at home!

Why on Earth did I put a crockpot?!! Oh, I'll tell you! When I'm in the middle of a project, the last thing I want is to stop and make food. PLEASE can we all get personal chefs? It may not be a personal chef but this is my absolute favorite crockpot! And I've owned 11! So you can take it to the bank when I say this is the one to buy!

I absolutely adore using this model magic! It's so soft and perfect for little hands to mold and shape. Plus, it never irritates my skin, which means I can create for hours! My kids also love how easy it is to create with!

If you are old enough, you will remember this magical face and how when you were on long road trips you could use a magnet to give him hair! When I stumbled across this plate I knew it would be a hit and the best part, now my kids get to make Dinner time, art time too!

Another great book to read with young kids is Mix it up! It is so interactive and the kids love smooshing and mixing the colors on the page. It is so clever and a I love exploring it with my kids and my students!

When I gifted this to my mother, so was ecstatic to have all of the amazing prompts that help her creativity flourish as she tells me more about her childhood. I have loved hearing more about so many unique and fun life experiences!

There is something so satisfying about creating with kinetic sand. My kids love it, I love it! It's such a blasts to sink your hands into and get exploring

This is as close to magic as I think you can get! When we use these during summer campouts I feel like my kids imagination goes wild but also like it slows down time of the hustle and bustley world. It's just what I need on a cool summer night

These jars are the width of a dime and are just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. My son gave these out as a Valentine one year with handmade notes that said, "You Rock" and other cute puns. He loved them so much he bought his own so he could keep a collection

I have always referred to Settlers of Catan as the Gateway game. It is perfect for families who want to get into more gaming and don't know where to start. It is also a great game for creativity and deep thinking because the board changes every time! I hope you make ALL the memories playing this together!

While I originally bought a set of these pens for my daughter, I had to eventually buy my own set when I kept stealing hers! They are so smooth when writing, and are comfy to use and are adorable!
