How can i do a sort of knitting? is it relaxing?



I always wanted to learn to knit, looked very entertaining. It was as if the people who wove enter to a zone where only there was  meditation, wool yarn and knitting needles. 

My mother could never teach me how to do it, with three children and many bills,  she had to work long hours, but her work also gave us a good education and at my 29 years I can say I have a job that allows me to weave in the mornings or at least learn ...

I saw something online That Looked kind of like knitting, is a jersey knit bracelet, i also saw many young women doing it as i was growing up, but i had to focus on my education so i had no time for That either.

Here's what i used to do my own bracelet and the results when mine was finally done. It was really easy and for some reason it does take you to That meditation zone. And it would only take you a few minutes to do it.

So if you feel stress this is what you do to relax. Enjoy
how mine turned out




BTW: I posted a youtube Video that i found because let's face it I'm not a genius, and knowledge does not come in clouds, please see below :)

when you have a little boy at home how to keep him busy?



I have a awesome 4 years old boy and he is the light in my life but also, he is 4 energetic, active little kid that does not have a sibling. He often complains about not having a brother or sister, and due to the fact that i can't make him one either i have to be his bother, sister and mom.

I try by all means to arrange play dates and gather his friends at all times, so he doesn't feel alone, also to play with him like a child and plan activities ahead. Here 1 inexpensive activity that i found online that you can do at home with simple things.

  •  paint
  • foam plate
  • a brush or roller
  • paper
  • love
Prints...

I really liked this one because gave me the opportunity to show him how the prints kind of work, I found this one on Pinterest and i was able to do it in no time. If you don't have a paint roller you can use a paint brush and just explain your children how they can spread the paint evenly, it works almost the same way.

Easy art project for kids- foam printmaking using a takeout tray and a dull pencil!

This is how mine looked
