All things Boy: Activities, recipes, DIY, Science projects and Crafts for Boys.
Last week I shared my son’s M&M’s basketball cake that we made for his 7th birthday. Since his birthday fell during the week we did his sports party with friends this weekend and needed a little treat to give to them. Of course we thought of sports cupcakes. I will be sharing all of the fun we had at the party later this week. [Read more...]
My big boys were practicing baseball and little brother wanted to play. They made him sit behind the rebounder.
You can tell he didn’t get much action! 
Sometimes it stinks being little!
It’s the time of year again. The gloom of winter is behind us and the ball park is calling our name. My boys just started little league and I can’t but help think back to my childhood. Where I grew up, we lived for baseball. Looking back, it seems that playing ball may have been an actual requirement to live there. Everyone lived at the ball park in the summer. If you look through any Jr. High yearbook it will say, “Stay cute and cool and see you at the ball park.” Maybe that’s why I get so excited to see my boys dressed in their uniforms and beginning to learn the game.
I know that not all children love being involved in sports, but sports, in general, offer many physical, mental and emotional benefits to kids. Here’s my top 20:
I’m a mom of 4 boys, which also makes me a
nurse, referee, taxi driver,teacher, party planner, story teller, barber,dietician, baker, atm, maid, personal shopper, jungle gym, coach, puppeteer, motivator and negotiator. On the rare occasion that I get a moment to myself I like to sing, play the piano and guitar and just relax. I’m sharing my life with you as well as fun activities, crafts, recipes and ideas designed just for boys, in hopes that together we can, not only survive, but find joy in raising boys. So leave a comment and get involved. I’d love to hear from you!
