JUST DO IT

Yesterday was my daughter's first birthday!  As exciting as it seems, I actually hate it, but that's another post entirely. This post is about one of the gifts I made her. I call it her "just do it jar". Basically, it's a jar filled with fun things for her to do. I gathered 52 fun activities, put them in simple categories (takes planning, everyday, nice weather, and costs more than $5), and then printed them on colored paper. All of the activities will actually cost about $3! Not only is it super cheap, but it gives us all a chance to make memories. Every week, she will pick one new activity and we will complete the activity as a family. I put in everything from colored spaghetti for dinner to going to the zoo. She will get her jar refilled every year on her birthday and have a whole new list of activities to do. She made her first pick and the winner is..... making building sticks. Every week, I will be sure to post instructions and lots of pictures!
