In case you missed any of our Pirate Week adventures, I thought I'd do a recap of all of our projects here! I'll be sharing the videos here but if you want a list of supplies, you can check out this blog post.

There's what we created on Thursday...a crowd favorite: Treasure Maps!

I brought back the Salt Dough Clay recipe because it was such a hit during Zany Scientist Week. With it, we created the details on our Treasure Chest!

We constructed a Pirate Ship Collage with materials found around the home:

And we even drew ourselves as pirates when we created this Wanted Pirate Poster!

I'll be going LIVE again this week for...Superhero Week! Stay tuned for the projects I have lined up for us, I'll be posting later on today. You can catch me LIVE here on Facebook or on Instagram. You can also catch me later on my YouTube channel.

Toilet Paper Tube Knitting!

Hey, y'all! The other day I shared a blog post titled Toilet Paper Tube Crafts and it was wildly popular! It made me recall another favorite craft involving the lowly toilet paper tube and that's making a Nifty Knitting Tube! Here's a three minute video to show you how:

All you'll need is a tube, some popsicle sticks, tape, scissors and yarn. That's it! For a loose knit, use only four sticks. For a tighter knit, try using six.

If interested, this is just one of the 44 stitch and string projects from my book! Have fun :)
