Mary Dall creates...: February 2013

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Friday, February 15, 2013. I finished Happy Birthday, Florida! In time to have it available for the many festivities happening in and around the state as it celebrates its 500 "birthday.". When Ponce de Leon arrived and called the lovely land "La Florida" he was referring, no doubt, to the budding spring that surrounded him and his crew. As the ending of "Florida's Name" states:. It's good he came in springtime. And not during torrential rain,. Or else our lovely Florida. Might have been named-.

Mary Dall creates...: Halloween Crafts

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2014/10/halloween-crafts_27.html

Monday, October 27, 2014. With Halloween just around the corner, I thought it would be fun to post some of the fast, fun and just about free crafts that I've done with, or for, my grand kiddos this year. Craft 1: Happy Halloween Collage. All you need for this craft is a piece of paper or cardboard any size you want, scissors, glue and a lot of Halloween newspaper or magazine ads that you would normally throw away. (Packaging tape and index cards and pens are optional.). I've made these for my grand kiddo...

Mary Dall creates...: July 2015

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

Friday, July 10, 2015. Well, it is about time I publish something. I've been working on a book and devoting my time to far too many volunteer activities and thus neglecting some things- like my blog! I am still sending fun things every other week or so to the grand-kiddos who live out of state but have been remiss in posting them. I used to be committed to posting once a week. My new resolution is once a month. (I may be able to stick to that! These "What might they say? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, October 22, 2012. Christmas Trees (Dynamic Dioramas). Once the holidays are here- they're here! Time to think about Christmas too. My last post talked about Halloween trees from tomato stems. Why not consider a Christmas tree from grape stems! Make it your own. Enjoy some grapes. Let the stems dry out. This is how to hold the stem in. This idea was in my book Little Hands-Create! Halloween Spooky Trees (Dynamic Dioramas). Book I mentioned in my last post, but any free, hand-cut bat or animal cut ...

Mary Dall creates...: May 2013

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 1, 2013. There are a lot of fun and historical things happening around the state of Florida in celebration of our 500 Birthday. My book, Happy Birthday, Florida! 1513-2013) was honored recently with inclusion in the time capsule event at the Seminole County Public Library System, East Branch. I was able to read a poem, "Florida's Name" from the book. Now, if I can just live long enough to be at the "unearthing" in 50 years! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mary Dall's Home Page.

Mary Dall creates...: April 2014

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 11, 2014. Countdown to a Visit. The children took turns taking off, or X-ing out, a plane. It was like a "count down to Christmas" only this time the countdown was a "count down to Mom-Mom" coming to visit. The children love getting different and unusual letters each week in the mail.

Mary Dall creates...: Labeling Fun

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2014/04/labeling-fun-helicopters-and-planes-to.html

Tuesday, April 8, 2014. Helicopters and Planes to Label. Labeling is always fun and I was able to find brochures that had cool pictures of things of interest to the children. The helicopters and biplanes even had the "word cards" easily trimmed from the brochure. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mary Dall's Home Page. Countdown to a Visit. Simple template.

Mary Dall creates...: May 2014

http://marydallcreates.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 28, 2014. The hummingbirds are zipping through the yard and I'm working on my new book, Critters are Cool. I also cut out some small pictures of hummingbirds from the purchased hummingbird feeder food carton. (I purchased it once just to get the container that I could continue to refill with my homemade food.). The grandkiddos who live locally put out feeders too and now call their big classroom window- bird TV. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Mary Dall's Home Page.
