Great Idea for Easter Egg Hunts...

It's the day after Easter and speaking to my neighborhood gal pals, one told me what she did with her girls. Sheer genius... You know. One of those "why didn't I think of that" kind of moments! With money being kind of tight, we have been looking for creative ways to do what we normally would've done. She began to describe what she put into her girls Easter Eggs... Coupons for special things like a pass for the front seat, doughnuts one morning for breakfast, one on one time with a parent, I mean the list went on and on. How simple yet so much more meaningful than candy that just might lead to a trip to the dentist! What a wonderful idea!!! Just wanted to share it....

Recycle old bits of crayon

I used Reynolds fun shapes muffin/cupcake liners in my muffin pan. Then I melted old bits of crayons from my kids pencil boxes at 250 degrees for 15 minutes. I then swirled gently with a toothpick ( it will look pinkish depending on what colors you add) and let cool. After they were cool, I popped them out and they are ready to go! They are awesome especially for preschoolers to work on their grip!
