This DIY lip balm recipe is fantastic! Quick and easy to make in just 10 minutes. I love the natural ingredients like coconut oil and shea butter. Customizing it with essential oils and tint is a fun touch. It also makes a great homemade gift. Overall, a thumbs-up!

Party must have! We had the best class Christmas Party and started off with the emoji Christmas song sheet. Our 4th graders absolutely LOVED it! It was hilarious to see which songs they knew and a perfect way to start our snow day adventure games.

Fantastic motivational tool! These punch cards have been a game-changer with my kids! They have been extra helpful around the house lately and are quick to do their chores and homework in the hopes that they will be “caught being good!” We LOVE these!

This was the first bath bomb recipe I tried so I didn’t understand the horror stories about failed bombs. It wasn’t until I tried other recipes that I realized I had hit the gold mine of recipes on my first try and came right back to this one! Perfect…bath bombs came out hard, fizzed, and foamed perfectly!
