I can't take a whole lot of credit for creativity. I page through toy catalogs such as The Magic Cabin, Constructive Play Things, Toys to Grow On and find toys that are easily reproducible at home. I have other ideas for next year that I can share. It's a lot of work, but I think it's a lot of fun and rewarding. Emily LOVED making the dolls and she helped me with the ABC mat.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18056977094811566757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19557769.post-7492452531925485322009-01-04T23:38:00.000-05:002009-01-04T23:38:00.000-05:00Melinda, I think this is great!
