I think I've mentioned before how much we enjoy dancing. My littlest one will be two this year, and her big sister turned five in April. They love to boogie! We usually play music and enjoy the moment. My two-year-old loves to shake and rattle things. We're always coming up with new ways to make shakers. This time, we used empty spice containers (plastic ones). So, if you have some empty ones at home, make some shakers for your little ones. It's super easy and fun for everyone. Post updated:7/30/2025 What you will need:   - Empty spice containers  - Beans  - Beads  - Anything fun you want to add to your shaker  - Permanent markers work best Step 1: Decorating Each Container   Start by decorating each container. Let your creativity shine and have fun with this process! We used permanent markers to decorate our jars, as they won't smear.

This weekend. Laughter. Hugs. Smiles. Love.  And... a whole lot of  C O L O R ! We spent this day at the Color Run. It was a first for us and we absolutely loved every second of it. ♡ Pink! One of my favorite colors. Yellow. Our first color in the color run. About to party... The post-race party! Music, dancing, and of course more color. (My daughter is the little one with the tutu on. She's with her dad enjoying the view as she sits on his shoulders.)  And of course, the happy wall. --What makes you happy?

I've seen so many creative ways to make maracas, and I thought this one was great! We have two sets of store-bought maracas. I  wanted something my daughter could make, and later have fun with.  My daughter took a few different sharpies and created art on the plastic eggs. Once she was done, we filled them up with macaroni noodles. (Which I forgot to mention as one of the things needed in the picture above)  Below you can view the video we played and danced to. We had a lovely time. Have fun shaking your maracas!!!!! Pin for later
