You can gauge how crafty I am ("not very") by the execution of this play stove I made today for the 17-month-old, but I did think it was a pretty creative idea that used a kid-table we already had and some remnants from the fabric store.
I would like you to know that this stove is SO REALISTIC that I really burned myself on it.
Mark was skeptical that the baby would recognize the faux-electric-burners, as we have a gas stove, but indeed he immediately identified them as HOT and started putting pans on them.
So, that was what I did with my summer Friday morning. What about you?
Dude, I think you are SUPER crafty. This is exactly the kind of crafty I aspire to!

I think it is great! And if the toddler gets it, then you've achieved your mark.
I personally spent the morning deep cleaning and organizing. Sure, it needs to be done, but it generally is a sign I'm avoiding something. Finishing up my HS'ing plans, perhaps? Which is weird, because I generally love doing that. But often only once I'm sitting there doing it!
