Recycled Princess Castle

My daughter and I enjoyed doing this Princess Castle.

It's made of materials that we found at home. It's a project that she created and submitted during their school's Math and Science week.

Materials used: box, shoe boxes, popsicle sticks, old puzzle pieces, styrofoam boxes, take-out boxes, soap boxes, decorations from magazines, old folders

So instead so throwing these materials away, we turned it into a castle!

The princess throne is from the scrap shoe box, a styrofoam cup and cut-out from Disney Princess magazine.

She personalized her project by cutting letter's from the magazine and formed the words - Skylah's Castle. This recycled project activity gave her a sense of accomplishment. It expressed her creativity and boost her imagination.

Recycling is fun and enjoyable! It is important that we teach our kids to reduce, reuse and recycle materials. It's a great way to make new crafts.

I Love Being a Woman

"A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform."
This is what I LOVE most about being a WOMAN.

Our body is powerful and beautiful. We are blessed with the power to create life and to be a mother.
Our complexities allow us to feel a whole range of emotions - from being delighted and passionate, to being seductive and emotional.
Our tears can flow abundantly in the same way with our laughter.

We have unlimited capacity to Love.
We can adapt to any situations like chameleons. We fight for what we believe in like warriors.
We count our blessings and celebrate in many ways our experiences from the heart and mind.

I love that we manifest our own destiny, wear many different hats and fulfill countless roles.
We live our lives to the best we can - with our family, in our relationships, in our jobs or in any other environment imaginable.

I love how we make ourselves the most wonderful, the greatest and the most loving person in the world.
Even Beyonce also says it well - "Who run the world? GIRLS!!!"

Google Maps Helped Me Find Places

In a few weeks, my kids would start enjoying their school summer vacation.

Aside from going to the beach and traveling, summer is the best time for summer workshops. Parents are already looking for fun activities that their kids can do this summer. These workshops develop and enrich every child’s self-confidence, skills, creativity, imagination and self-expression. It allows them to explore their talents and interests.

Google maps marketing are really helpful. Business that can be found online has a potential of reaching more clients and customers. 

I've already seen many summer classes for kids and teens  - from sports clinics, art classes, music and theater courses, cooking and baking classes. Aside from that, there are also academic enrichment classes in Math, Science, Reading and foreign languages. See, there's really a lot to choose from and consider.

Aside from checking out the locations of these different summer schools, my husband and I spent time searching online for schools near my mother-in-laws' house. Good that there's Google map. I rely on that map most of the time. My husband didn't have a hard time checking out the schools since Google map provided him with a sense of direction.

I really like using Google map to find locations of businesses. It always helped me find directions and locate establishments easily. It's even better since phone number and exact addresses are listed as well.

I am participating in a blogger campaign by Bucks2Blog and was compensated. However, the views and opinions are my own.
