Cut Glass Fairy Land
You know those cut glass punch bowls, vases, cake stands etc. that you get as a wedding present or from an elderly relative, that sit in the back of the kitchen cupboard taking up space because you feel too guilty to throw them out.
...
Well here is the perfect solution!
A couple of little fairy ornaments under them in the garden, and you'll have some very happy little kids.
Our apologies to anyone who actually likes cut glass. :-/

Vegetable-Dyed Easter Eggs
Visit this site for step-by-step directions:

I’m trying to make a move away from synthetic food dyes and wanted to use natural, homemade dyes this year. Not only are these colors absolutely healthy for human consumption, but the process of making them is a wonderful lesson in creating art materials from scratch and can help children think critically about how to achieve various colors colors.
As I was cutting the onions and beets I asked my daughter what colors she thought they’d make. I also asked questions like, “If I wanted to make blue dye, what might I make it with?”
She had fun making guesses based on what we had in our kitchen and garden, and also came up with her own wild suggestions such as, “let’s take the skins off the bananas to make yellow dye!”
Low Vitamin D Levels
Low vitamin D levels are associated with cognitive impairment and stroke. If you live in northern latitudes, avoid sun exposure, have dark skin or have kidney disease you may be deficient in this important nutrient. A simple blood test can determine if you need to take a supplement.
