Crayon Hearts Project

Jul 04, 2019 Posted by: Jemelee Arcibal

Let’s admit it, we throw away tons of broken and old crayons that are no longer being used especially when we have bought our kids a new set of crayons most of the time. And I was guilty of that too!

Try this crayon hearts decor the next time you’ll have some broken crayons from your kids instead!

 

MATERIALS:

    • Waxed paper
    • Wax crayons
    • Handheld pencil sharpener
    • Kraft paper
    • Iron
    • Pencil
    • Scissors
    • Silk thread

STEPS:

1. Begin with a 12-by-16-inch sheet of waxed paper. Fold it in half along its length; unfold. Deposit wax-crayon shavings (made with a handheld pencil sharpener) evenly but not thickly across one half of the paper. Fold the clean half of the paper over the shavings. Crimp the three open edges with a 1/2-inch fold to hold the shavings.

2. Protect your ironing surface with kraft paper. Place the waxed paper on the kraft paper, and cover it with another sheet of kraft paper. Iron lightly on medium heat, checking after every few passes. Stop when all the shavings have melted; let cool.

3. Trace and cut out hearts of various sizes. String each heart with a silk thread for hanging.

Ingredients: 

Cashew Cream

  • 1 cup of raw cashews, soaked 
  • 1 cup of vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

For the rest of the soup

  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 6 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • ½ of sweet onion, chopped
  • Lemon juice
  • 6 cups of vegetable broth
  • 2 teaspoons of italian seasoning
  • ¼ cup of nutritional yeast
  • 2 teaspoons of agave syrup
  • 8 lasagna sheets
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. The cashews need to be soaked for 6-8 hours. If you’re in a hurry, you can soak the cashews in a boiling water for about 15-30mins.
  2. Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a blender with the rest of the cashew cream ingredients. Blend on high, scraping down the sides as needed until the cream is super smooth and velvety with no texture. Set aside. 
  3. Now, in a large soup pot, heat the olive oil on medium high. Then add the garlic and onions to the pot. Saute, reducing heat as needed until the garlic and onions are slightly caramelized. 
  4. Add the lemon juice to the pot and scrape any bits of garlic and onion off the bottom. 
  5. Pour the vegetable broth and whisk in the italian seasonings and the nutritional yeast as well as the agave. 
  6. Now, pour all the cashew cream you made into the pot and whisk to combine everything. 
  7. Season a few salt and pepper, then simmer. 
  8. Next, break the lasagna sheets, then add the soup. 
  9. Simmer, stirring frequently until the noodles are al dente. Check the packaging for the proper timing. 
  10. Once the noodles are done, taste and adjust  the seasoning. 
  11. Serve and top some fresh herbs!

SHAVING CREAM RAINBOW

Messy sensory is indeed challenging because obviously as moms - we are the ones who will clean up the mess after. LOL.

However, we sometimes need to get out of our comfort zone for the sake of our kids learning and enjoyment. 

This giant shaving cream rainbow sensory play for kids is one of those times where even I was pushed outside of my comfort zone.

LET THE KIDS GET MESSY WITH THIS GIANT RAINBOW SENSORY PLAY IDEA!

What you’ll need:

  • Seven cans of shaving cream (you can purchase any brand from any dollar store)
  • Food coloring and liquid watercolors

Instructions:

  • Well, nothing really complicated. You’ll just have to mix the two ingredients to come up with a giant rainbow sensory play!

The result was lovely to see all the colors swirl together into a glossy, sparkly mixture. But it was still delightful to play in.

You don’t really have to worry about cleaning it up after, you can simply hose them off right away!
