As I wandered around Facebook I came across this notice…Hot Glass Houston is having it’s largest sale ever! They’re selling the business. As a well established business in the glass community this could be an amazing opportunity for anyone looking to getting in the kiln forming business. They’ve been in business for over 4 years and are looking to move in a different direction in their lives, as they’ve stated. They have a wonderful relationship with Bullseye glass, having been one of their best performing Resource Centers. Check out their information…I’m sure they’ll be able to find a buyer in no time. And who knows, it could be you!

Spring Activities to Get Kids Outside
By the end of March where I live we are starting to have more warm days than not, and all we want to do is spend more time outside. Luckily we can make it educational and a little fun, too, with these spring activities involving the outdoors.
Of course it’s great to do things that will get kids outside and keep them going outside, like starting a garden or installing bird feeders and going out to regularly fill/check on them. Making seed bombs is a fun thing you can do inside and then use outside to see what grows. Or make these for Mother’s Day gifts! Get the instructions from Natural Beach Living.
Make your own bubble wands (and/or your own bubble solution) and get outside to blow bubbles. If you want to make a giant bubble wand, you can find out how from It’s Always Autumn.
If you have access to a sidewalk you can make your own sidewalk chalk (or chalk paint) and draw or play sidewalk chalk games. First up, get the recipe for chalk from Princess Pinky Girl, then get some ideas for sidewalk chalk games.
I personally love hopscotch because it gets kids moving, but you can also print out or come up with your own spring movement activity cards (these are from From ABCs to SATs) and take them outside to use in a game or just let kids go wild hopping like bunnies and waddling like ducks. I love the idea of a spring themed game of Red Light, Green Light where kids have to do the movements as they go.
And of course nature walks are great all the time, and there are all sorts of themes you can use, from collecting different colors to textures, shapes and more. I love this one for a fairy house building activity from Glitter on a Dime. First kids can walk around and collect materials, then design and decorate their fairy homes.
