Apparently I’m on a rainbow kick this week. All of the crafts and activities that caught my eye this past week were all so COLORFUL!!

Have a dollar store nearby? You may want to raid a few of the supplies they have there to make some CUTE monster puppets. A Little Pinch of Perfect shares a great tutorial to start you on some imaginative play.

A great pre-writing activity for children is using a salt tray. I LOVE the twist that Where Imagination Grows shares in making a Rainbow Salt Tray.

Sun catchers are such an easy craft to pull together, but add some fun color to any theme or time of year! This fish sun catcher craft from ABC Creative Learning would be fun for the summer months.

Keeping cool with colorful ice cubes would be fun too! Excite and Explore shares a few ways you can use the ice cubes for added fun.

Ready to link up and share your learning fun from this last week? Thanks so much to the ladies above for linking up last week and giving us some great ideas to use!

This week has been crazy busy in our home and we’re looking forward to a bit of a break this weekend, but the learning will still be continuing over the summer (yep, we’ll be summer homeschooling), even though our official school year is done! Here are a few ways that you can continue the learning and creativity in the upcoming months.

This all-in-one butterfly metamorphosis craft shared by A Little Pinch of Perfect is…well, perfect! I love how it all fits together to show the various stages!

Everyone needs a little imaginative play in their lives and Joys of the Journey shares their recent Peter Pan and Neverland time. The costumes = AMAZING. Just amazing.

Have lots of little creepy crawlies that are being examined? Angelic Scalliwags shares the bug observatory they put together to study insects. So simple and fun!

These colorful fish are so easy to paint and involve a fun painting method – forks! Visit Fantastic Fun and Learning for the quick tutorial.

And while you’re there, don’t miss the simple way they blended ladybugs and math together and made it a fun game.

Looking for some great books to read with your children this summer? Join the 30 Picture Books in 30 Days challenge and set aside a time each day for intentional reading and cuddling with your kids!

That’s all for this week! Thanks so much for joining up and sharing with us all.

A Little Pinch of Perfect has some yummy and cute snack ideas to go along with Eric Carle’s  The Very Hungry Caterpillar. She also shares some fun sensory ideas and an art activity too.

If you need a fun gift idea for grandparents or friends, check out the Fingerprint Bug Flower Pot craft from Lovely Commotion. This would be a great teacher gift for those of you that aren’t homeschooling.

All your leftover egg cartons would make some fun flower crafts. All you need are some popsicle sticks and paint to make this cute craft from Boy Mama Teacher Mom.

This DIY backyard tent tutorial from Adventure in a Box would be a fun spring project and way to enjoy the warming weather. Our kids would love to cuddle up with a book and enjoy this little hideaway.

Those are the highlights from last week’s linkup. Can’t wait to see what you all have to share this week!
