Face Mask Laundry Tip
A doitandhow original: If you’ve made the fitted cotton masks for your family members, here’s a tip: When you pull them out of the dryer, form them around a sock ball while they’re still warm. This helps prevent all the wrinkling up!

Note: I got the batik blue, black floral and purple stripe fabric at Joann’s. I’ve had the cute sock monkey fabric on the right forever – so I’m not sure where that came from.

Storytelling Basket
Gather a number of items for the story teller to use. The child who is chosen as the teller must use all the items during story time. This is also fun for the reverse; have the kids pick out a pre-determined number of items and YOU the parent, or YOU the teacher, have to come up with a story using all of the items! Truly is fun for all!
