Materials:
Plastic Lid (from plastic container, cups, etc)
Popsicle Sticks
Craft Paper
Scissors & Glue
How To:
Take the scissors and cut a small hole in the center of the plastic container lid and insert the popsicle stick! Piece of cake right? The construction paper is to make the decorative nautical flags which you stick to the "mast" of the popsicle ship! This is your ship! This buoyant and creative ship can float around the pool, bathtub or down a handmade ramp you make in the back yard for racing!

Ok, so this one is a little bit of cheating, but is super fun and a great way to make memories with your kids.
Materials:
Ivory Soap Bars - each bar cut into 4 pieces!
How To:
Cut the bar of soap into 4 pieces and place 1 of the pieces in the microwave. Make sure NOT to put the whole bar into the microwave. Only put one piece of the bar in at a time. Bad idea!!! Set the microwave for 3 minutes and watch the magic happen! The soap grows and expands! Soon you will see an amazing white rock growing in your microwave! You can of course peal or break parts of this off to wash your hands which also is part of the fun!
Best DIY Crafts for Moms - Custom T-Shirts!

Materials:
A cotton t-shirt you want to design
Clorox Bleach Pen
Wax Paper
How To:
Lay the shirt on a flat surface on top of newspaper (to protect the surface) and place the wax paper inside the shirt to prevent the bleach from running through. Shake the bleach pen well and then start designing your shirt! Wherever the bleach is applied, it will remove the color so you may want to draw your design in pencil or chalk prior to trying this out. You can't take it back once applied. Allow the bleach to dry fully and then wash the t-shirt separately from everything else. Ta da!
