Spring is here according to the calendar, even though it was very cold again this morning. Slowly weather is starting to get warmer and it will be snowing less and less. Instead of snow we will get rain! You can make the sound of rain inside your house with something called a rainstick! Follow the link for the tutorial: Make your own rainstick

Toilet Paper Roll Flower
Spring is only two days away!! Sure, outside doesn't feel like Spring at all yet, but inside you can decorate your room with a flower...made from toilet paper rolls! Click the link for a short tutorial: Toilet Paper Roll Flower
The tutorial itself doesn't have too may details, but here's an idea: In the picture it looks like there is a pompom in the center of the flower. If you decide to add a pompom you could give it a small spritz of perfume so your flower has a sweet spring smell!

It hasn't snowed for a while now. Maybe Spring is finally on it's way! When Spring is on it's way that means it's maple sugaring season. Delicious! You might need to dig just a little to get some good, clean snow for this delicious winter snack, but it will be worth it!
