    Resurrection Cross Craft for Easter

    February 15, 2025 - By Jenn Gerlach

    Mother Goose Time sent this one as a craft to go with the February Experience God set. I quickly fell in love with the Jesus in my rock craft only to fall into slight disappointment. The original plan failed. No amount of kid-friendly glue would hold pebbles in place but, my oldest and I had an idea. We created our own craft perfect for decorating for easter. This Resurrection Cross craft is perfect now we spiced it up a bit. What you need to make your own Resurrection Cross Craft for Easter Cardboard cross – The one Mother Goose Time sent was about the thickness of…

    January 9, 2025 - By Jenn Gerlach

    When it comes to teaching health at home the first topic most of us turn to is learning about food groups. To learn to balance our diets we need to learn what foods go where and why we need them. This month with Mother Goose Time we are enjoying the Food and Fitness theme. Last week we took the time to enjoy a food groups unit study. The kids really loved getting hands on and learning why the food groups are so important. Here are a few food groups activities for kids. Don’t miss the free printable food sort game…

    Invitation to Create: My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss

    January 2, 2025 - By Jenn Gerlach

    This year Mother Goose Time is doing this really cool new Invitation to Create thing. I may have been holding my breath waiting for the September box to see what they were about. The previews made everything seem so exciting. And I am here to tell you they live up to our expectations.  I may have been guilty of skipping ahead and doing day ten as soon as the suggested book arrived in the mail. My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss was a hit for this project. This Dr. Seuss book had us laughing because it pretty much explains my personality…

    It’s that time of year again. The holidays instantly bring a sense of joy when the bells start ringing. Yes, we even like the bell ringers. It’s a tough job be kind to them. These cute bells came as a counting toy with Mother Goose Time last year’s December theme. This craft so reminds me of my younger years when I was in choir singing Christmas songs wearing a long silver skirt that looked like a giant bell. Make a Bell Shaker One fun craft in this month’s theme is a bell shaker for the children to make sweet music while…
