Economics Day 3: Fun for the Kids

Wednesday, 14 May 2008 20:39 by sara

Most families receive an extra $300 in stimulus money per child.  Isn't it only fair that a little bit of that money go toward something for the kids?

How cute are these little play date sets from Rosanna? They'd be great for serving soup and sandwiches for lunch or hot cocoa and powdered donuts for snack.  Rosanna also makes an adorable tea set, which would be perfect for serving these:

 

I love felt food. I think I love it even more than my girls love it. Can you imagine a whole set of cookies and cupcakes to play with? This particular food is from Sugar Chic Baby.  I purchased our felt food from Sweet Confections, and I can't say enough good things about it. We bought a cookie jar full of cookies and they are adorable.  Sweet Confections is winding down her shop for the summer, but she'll be back in the fall with new creations.

"Bunny Likes Tea"  I've been loving Sara Jane Studios, and I think this print is adorable.   

 

Zen Shorts is great. It's so clever and tells three Zen tales in a really fun way.  We've also enjoyed Zen Ties, also by Jon J. Muth. It introduces the character of Koo as Stillater greets him with, "Hi, Koo".  Not surprisingly, Koo speaks in Haiku form.  Muth's books are clever enough to entertain adults, while teaching valuable traits to children.  Each book contains an explanation of the virtues and symbolism in the story, which is great for explaining the meaning of the story to older children.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.

There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game.

Hi everyone, This website is good quality and so is the manner in which the subject matter was written about. I like some of the comments too although I would prefer everyone stays on the subject matter to add value to the idea. It will be also encouraging to the writer if we all could mention it (for some of us who use bookmarking services such as a delicious, twitter,..). Thanks again.
