Little Laplinks is a list of free resources that would be good for making an early elementary lapbook. There will be a different theme each month – this month is Pumpkins. Head on over to Little Blots for more pumpkin links.

snapfish sale
I told you during Christmas In July that I would post some photo gift deals, and this is a great one! Snapfish is having a Surprise Sale this week with a different best seller featured every day. Today’s sale was 71% off flipbooks – too bad I found out about it so late that none of us can order one! Register to see each day’s sale.
if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it
I posted my famous Cookie Monster recipe on Monday and mentioned that I would be putting mini M&M’s in them – I wanted them to be colorful for Sassyfrass to share with her friends.
Don’t do that…. it’s not so good.
wfmw – backwards day
Today is Backwards Day at Works-For-Me Wednesday. Instead of sharing a tip that has worked for you, you’ll throw out an issue or question that has stumped you.
I have two things:
- I love all the digital scrapbook pages on your blogs. I have NO CLUE how to even begin looking for info on that. I’ve found lots of sites about digital scrapbooking, but I need some very basic beginner details.
- I want to get an art set for Dancerella for Christmas. I want a real set (no Roseart or Crayola) for under $50. She is almost 9 and really has a passion for drawing & creating. Can you recommend a brand, or a great place to buy one?
Head on over to Rocks In My Dryer to help someone out or get a question of your own answered.
check out this online Bible
I haven’t signed up yet, but I think this has the potential to be very useful! It’s an online Bible that you can highlight, tag AND journal. I’m an ESV girl (& love it too much to give it up, even for an online journal), but thankfully that was one of the versions used. I do my reading online everyday on Bible Gateway, but with this I could highlight things I want to remember and take notes as I read…because I forget my great thoughts about 5 minutes after I finish reading. And I’m guessing that with the tag feature you can create your own topical reference. How cool is that? I’ll give it a try & post the results as my WFMW next week. (In case you haven’t heard, this week’s WFMW is backwards day – Instead of giving a tip, you’ll ask for one, on a very specific subject.)
**Ok, I poked around a little more & here’s what I found: The tags work like blog tags, categorizing your verses AND connecting you to verses that other people have tagged. There is a community tab on the journal – you can share your thoughts on a passage & read others’ thoughts on it too; you can also share related images & links.
