Hi Caroline, doesn’t it seem like the time goes so quickly? Sometimes it feels like I blink and they are another 4 inches taller. Thank you for reading our blog, we hope to hear from you again!

Magnetic poetry rocks! Eventually though, we permanently retired the wee little tiles of magical-words-that-spark-creativity because our kids became teenagers and the poetry became…a tad more frightening in nature. You’ll know when it’s time, but until then, enjoy the fun!

I’ve never tried magnetic poetry. I enjoyed hearing about it. When we moved our 3 sons to a Caribbean Island off Belize, we spent many hours simply talking, since we didn’t have TV, and the electricity turned off several times a week. Amazing how “freeing” it was to live without outside entertainment.

Our family used to LOVE sitting at the table and writing stuff with our magnetic poetry! We would do them on the back of a cookie sheet and then transfer the good ones to the fridge. I miss those days. Thanks for the reminder!

Life’s Victories Carnival…

Let’s talk about victory and celebrating our victories. I honestly get tired of seeing all the negative things the world promotes through the news media and even commercials. It seems to me we need to develop a positive news network. I would rather hear about people who believe to achieve

WOW! I had never experienced this before. I am a Preschool teacher and will definitely use this technique with my children (a parent child activity to celebrate their unique relationships)!! I love that it shows that its ok that we are not perfect..no one is perfect. I also love that it is an activity that “pulls” a family together!!!

The Best of Me Symphony blog carnival presents Magnet word poetry pulls a family together posted at Bur Bur and Friends: Community Park saying: They say “an artists work is never done” so is that really okay? See how one mother and son created a work of art to call their own and what they learned from it.”
