The Best of 2011

I came across this Blog Hop: Best Projects for Kids 2011 … wanting to join up made me think about my 6 months of blogging thus far. It’s been so much fun and has really inspired me to do tons of fun projects with and for the kids … as well as challenged me to think of new twists on the projects to use in play therapy.

Searching for my “best blog of 2011”, I went through the 6 months of post and found these to be my favorite …

Since had to pick just ONE … I kinda cheated and linked a post that has 3 parts! I think these posts are ones I got the most feedback … and they are also the biggest part of our play at home and at the office. (It was also Henry’s top pick!)

The Games We Play … Part 1,
Part 2,

Part 3

And here are some more of my favorites …

Keeping The P.E.A.C.E … an article on improving parent-child relationships … because I think it has some real simple tips on helping parents!

iPhone Apps: Favorite Apps for Kids (Part One and Part Two)

Ice-Pop Paint (idea from Hands On: As We Grow) … because we had SO much fun with this one!

Noodle Monsters … because they turned out so cute!

Ghastly Gord Goblins … and these were cute too!

Candy Experiments … ’cause it was just TOO COOL!

And, finally, Four Weeks of Elf Adventures …

So … I’d love to hear what you think! Which was YOUR favorite? And if you haven’t linked up to the Best of 2011 Blog Hop make sure you follow the link at the beginning of this post and sign up!!!
