it’s holiday time which means a lot of travel. in an airplane, car, or bus, daisy and i have found the best way to make a creative project out of a long trip…

a trip book!


go to the art store and buy a blank sketch book. draw pictures from the air plane, airport or wherever you are! collect everything from ticket stubs to take-out menus to a blade of grass from granny’s house!


all you need for dozens of hours of creative fun
•    sketch book (or pain notebook)
•    colored pencils or markers
•    tape


when you are finished with your trip, your kid can share it with the school library! or keep it in your bookcase and fill a shelf of family trips throughout the years!

today daisy had a half day of school. so I took her and some friends to the Museum of Tolerance. it was so inspiring to see the toys kids make from all around the world made with recyclable materials!

daisy and friends loved it so much that when they came home, they made airplanes out of soda bottles!
