Craft bag anyone?

Today I came across this great site and great product which I just have to share -- the online store is called romp and the product is the above treasure trove of craft items for your child to explore their inner artist.  The story behind the concept of the store is great too -- a designer and mom who want to engage kids' natural and sense of joy with the world with products made of natural materials, great design, handmade goods, and unique surprises.  Love the concept.  Now, if only they would start carrying baby products ... maybe they would consider ZoLi.

Green Steps | Fruits of Labor

A while back, I posted that I would attempt planting my own vegetable garden.  I'm happy to report that I did do it and it's been great fun. Both my girls got involved in the entire process from the selection of what to plant to the actual planting and the watering. A lot of impromptu water play ensued from watering the plants.  And, now we are seeing the fruits of our labor.
