Last year, right smack-dab in the middle of the pandemic, I had a graduating Senior who we still wanted to celebrate. She wasn’t going to be able to graduate the traditional way everyone else before her had, but that didn’t matter. We planned a drive-by party and made sure she had some fantastic grad cards that she could send out …
Easy DIY Superhero Shirt
The end of the school year always brings a flurry of activities and themed spirit-wear days.

DIY Kid’s Worm Habitat
