Little Gifts to Say "I love you"---Every so often, when I'm out shopping I pick up a "little something" for my husband. I slip his fvorite candy bar or trinket into his jacket [ocket where he'll find it and know I was thinking of him.
Sandwich Shapes for Lunchbox Fun!---Using cookie cutters, I cut my daughter's sandwiches into hearts, diamonds, squares or stars. I guess it's a hit because all the girls are asking their moms to do it!
Mini Breaks Relieve Homework Overload---When my son gets a lot of homework I make sure he takes 15-minute breaks every hour or so to stretch his legs, eat a healthy snack, even shoot a few baskets. The breaks have become little rewards he looks forward to, making doing homework almost fun!
Soup on the Stove Welcomes You Home---On chilly days, I start a crockpot of soup in the morning and let it simmer while I'm aat work. Walking in the door knowing a delicious dinner's waiting is like being wrapped in a welcome home hug!
Name Necklace Party Favors---Make little girl birthday parties extra-special by making beaded name necklaces for all the guests. Better still, have your little girl make them with you!
