Kids Activities: Rainy days can be fun days
Try some fun kids activities the next time you have a rainy day. There are plenty of indoor activities for kids that you can share with your child on a rainy day. Visit us here at www.treasureboxkids.com where you will find the latest fashions in boys and girls clothing.
Kids Activities
Begin the kids activity by keeping a lot of things you might otherwise recycle. Store them in a box for a rainy day. When that day comes around; take out the box. There are not any rules for what you can make. Let your child’s imagination run and you will be surprised. Old yogurt cups can become treasures. Scraps of wrapping paper and old lace scraps might even make a wonderful new scrapbook page. We often make scrapbook pages for special occasions. Think of how nice it would be in years to come when you see the page made from a day that was just special for you and your youngster!

Baby Shower Ideas
Baby Shower Decoration Ideas
Some fun baby shower decoration ideas can be very exciting to plan with family and friends. Here are some simple yet adorable baby shower decorations. Visit Treasure Box Kids archived blog post to find more great ideas on baby shower decorations.
Baby Shower Decoration Ideas
Visit your local grocery store and ask for any square boxes that they are breaking down. Get boxes that are almost the same size in width and height. Purchase spray paint or regular paint from the discount store. Then paint the boxes pink and blue. Take poster paper and trace large letters that say boy or girl or baby. If you know the gender of the baby and know the name you can make the blocks with the baby’s name on them, one letter for each box. You can set these blocks up on either side of the chair that the new mom will sit at to open her baby gifts.
For baby shower decorations that will add accent to the room make these streamers. Use poster board and cut out cute baby shirts and packages that are wrapped baby gifts. You can make football jerseys for a boy and lacy dress for a girl. To add personal touches write the names of the parents on one shirt the names of the grandparents on another. If there are any siblings they can have a monogrammed shirt as well. String these shirts together with yarn and hang anywhere in the room for a cute finishing touch.
If you know the gender of the baby we have wonderful baby gifts in adorable clothing at www.treasureboxkids.com. Visit us to see our line of quality clothing for your baby, toddler and of course girls Birthday party dresses.

Kids Crafts
Crafts for Kids
For rainy day crafts for kids, or for a unique kids gift idea; make this fun paperweight craft. This craft for kids will also teach your child the outcome of mixing certain liquids together and about chemical reactions. Visit Treasure Box Kids where you will find adorable girl’s and boy’s outfits for any occasion.
Craft Idea
Below are the items that you will need to create this fun craft idea.
1. baby food jar or another small jar with a lid
2. a decorative eraser or other small decorative object that can be glued to the bottom of the jar that will remain secure.
3. sequence, glitter or both
4. fabric to cover the lid of the finished paperweight
5. corn syrup
6. food coloring
7. measuring cup
8. hot glue gun (for adult use only)
To begin the kids craft, glue the eraser or small object to the bottom of the jar using a hot glue gun. A hot glue gun is the only way to be sure that the item will stay glued.
Then help your child measure out ¼ cup of corn syrup and pour it into the jar. Fill the jar with water. Add food coloring to the mixture until your child has the desired color.
You can then add the glitter and sequence. Be careful and remind your child to not touch their face while using the glitter.
When you have added all the inside items, hot glue the lid to the jar. Then, you can take the fabric that is cut in a circle and cover the lid. Attach the fabric by tying a ribbon or yarn around the lip of the jar.
Have your child shake the jar and watch with delight the way the items inside seem to move in slow motion. They will learn that the corn syrup mixed with the water is the result of the optical illusion. Visit Treasure Box Kids blog archives to find more clever ideas on crafts for kids.

Birthday Party Ideas
Girls Birthday Party: Littlest Pet Shop Birthday Party
A very unique girls birthday party is a party that would include an animal theme. No one loves animals more than little girls. Why not have a children’s birthday party theme centered on animals?
When your guests first arrive at the children’s birthday party, give them their own set of animal ears. You can purchase inexpensive hats from a paint store and attach felt animal ears. Face paint whiskers and a pink nose on each girl.
Girls Birthday Party
One party game suggestion is a dog bone treasure hunt. Number the bones before hiding them. As the girls find the bones give them a prize that corresponds to the number on the bone. Another game suggestion would be leap frog. Make Lilly pads from felt and place them on the floor. Play the game of musical chairs using the Lilly pads.
To wind down the children’s birthday party, have the children make their own little pet house to take home. Use collected shoe boxes and cereal boxes to make this keepsake. Provide plenty of colorful paper and sticky back foam for them to decorate their very own pet house. If your budget allows purchase stuffed animals as a party favor for the pet house.
Visit www.TreasureBoxKids.com to find a very special girls birthday party dress for your daughter to wear to the party. You will also find adorable clothing for babies and toddlers at discount prices.
