Today I am posting a Popsicle stick airplane craft to make up for the lack of craft posting this past weekend!
There are tons of Popsicle stick airplane crafts that involve already colored sticks, but today's posting is based off of this website: http://kidschaos.com/lolly-stick-bi-planes/.
Have fun and enjoy!

Galaxy Slime!
This week's craft is galaxy slime! Because why not?!
Here is the link with detailed instructions: http://www.two-daloo.com/night-sky-activities-preschool-galaxy-slime-borax-free/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:+Twodaloo+%28Twodaloo%29.
Plus, it is not light sensitive so you can most certainly make this outside!
Enjoy!

Egg Carton Turtles!
It's turtle nesting season! Until sometime in October, according to Sea Turtle Conservatory (their website: http://www.conserveturtles.org/florida.php?page=nestingseason). The last day has not been announced yet, sorry.
These are super adorable and really simple, and I'm sure you can create any design on the turtle shell that you want!

Decorate for spring with this fun and easy craft!
Here is the link for inspiration and directions: http://krokotak.com/2015/02/spring-bouquet-2/. This would probably look just as adorable hanging up or suspended. Until next time!
