Healthy Meals from Words on Wheels

Our partner bus in Dawson Creek has published a fabulous cookbook with amazing visuals for young readers.  We have 5 copies to  borrow from the Bus and some to purchase if you fall in love with the child friendly format.

Looking for a creative, inexpensive Christmas craft for your kids?  Try making an I Spy bottle.  Gather any random toys you have at the bottom of your toy chest, under the seat in your car or behind the fridge.  Take a picture of them and throw them into a bottle or jar.  Glass jars are nice but more dangerous.

Daddy & Me
