a little dirt

Sometimes we forget that the most important times in the lives of our children is the early learning years. This is the time children absorb everything they see, hear and feel. Their little senses are heightened, eager to explore. Everything around them can be made into a learning tool, even nature. Let them be little, let them see, hear, feel, explore it all...

Ben-Ben took a moment to strategically place a candy cane on the tree. He did an amazing job, don't you think?

It is almost time for our annual Halloween Party. We have an awesome menu lined up. I will share photos after...

what time is it?

It's time for lunch! A cute way to get the little ones interested in lunch, through the month of October that is. Ben enjoyed every buttery bite. =0)

Candy Corn Marshmallows

These Candy Corn Marshmallows are the perfect size treat for the littles in your life! Our little Benjamin LOVES Marshmallows, or as he calls them, "Moshmawlows" =0) and now he will love them even more (at-least during the Fall anyway)...

Ingredients:

White chocolate melting wafers

Chocolate melting wafers

Orange food coloring

Yellow food coloring

Marshmallows

Melt the needed amount of white chocolate wafers in a melting pot or by following your package instructions.  Add orange food coloring until your desired shade of orange.  Dip your marshmallow about half way into the melted chocolate and swirl around to create a smoother finish.  Place on wax paper and allow to cool and harden completely.  While your marshmallow is cooling, melt more white chocolate and this time use your yellow food coloring.  Dip your Marshmallow into the yellow to create a candy corn look.  You can either leave your marshmallow just the way it is.  Which are perfect for adult parties or if you want to make them a little more kid friendly, melt a very small amount of chocolate wafers and using a toothpick, make two dots on the marshmallows for eyes!

This cute idea inspired by Made to be a Momma. Happy Crafting!!
