Episode Monday Motivation #2 | The Magic of a Busy Box
Send me a text about this episode!
In today's Monday Motivation, I'm sharing my summer memories of creating from my grandmother's scrap box and how I carried that practice into my own home when my children were growing up. Whether to fill time on a rainy afternoon, keep little hands busy during travel or in waiting rooms, a Busy Box for your kids or grandkids will certainly spark creativity. Just remember, it's not really about the end result, it's the process and the memory you are making of being creative together.
I'm also answering a listener question from The AoH Mail Bag about creating family and personal mission plans. EPISODE NOTES & LINKS Mail Bag Resources:
