lightbulb saturday:: inspiration for the weekend

Another week, another linky loo. If you are looking for creative ideas for the weekend - this will give you a great start!


This week I am loving:

a Plants vs Zombies garden theme from Think Magnet

Alien Bubbles from Preschool Projects (this project is NOT just for preschoolers)

Indoor Carnival Game from What Do We Do All Day




Enjoy your family and have fun creating together!

Welcome to The Kid's Co-op! Each week we get together we'll ask YOU to share your favorite kid's activities. We'd love to see a plethora of ideas geared for toddlers to pre-teens. We are looking for activities that are family oriented, fun, unique and educational. Please share your favorite project or blog post below. We will be sharing our favorite post from our own blogs too! {Co-hosted by: The Kid's Co-op Group, Let's Lasso the Moon & Nurture Store}
