Fourth of July is right around the corner (literally!). Here are easy and fun DIY projects for you and the little ones this weekend. 

Fourth of July means going to visit family in St. Pete and of course, keeping the little ones busy! Sometimes family’s homes don’t have as much to do as our home, so I come prepared! And now, you can be too. I’ve come up with some fun things my family and I are going to do this weekend to get ready for the fireworks and festivities that are soon to commence. I’ve scoured the internet for fun desserts and crafts that you and your family can do together to keep the spirit alive before Monday gets here.

The Easiest Red, White and Blue Dessert You’ve Ever Made

Yes, moms and ladies, this is one that is on my “must make” list each year because it’s so easy! All you need is four ingredients:

  • Strawberries
  • Raspberries
  • Mini Marshmallows
  • Blueberries

If you haven’t already guessed it, we’re going to line the strawberries on the top of a rectangle tray. Then add a row of mini marshmallows, then add a row of raspberries, and for your final row, add strawberries again. The finishing touch? Add a bowl of blueberries on the top left of the tray and Voila! You’ve got yourself a no-cook, beautiful dessert for this weekend!

Red, White, & Blue Tie-dye shirts

Tie-dye shirts are coming back into style. And, the best part? They’re fun and so easy to make! All you need to do is grab a t-shirt bought at your favorite store, grab some dye and rubber bands. Have your little ones help tie the rubber bands in random spots all over the t-shirt. Then, dip ends into the different colors of dye. Once you’ve completed this, let the shirt dry and remove the rubber bands leaving you with a fun and colorful shirt!

Rocket Pops

First of all, these footprint rocket pops from this blog have to be the cutest! These make fun decorations or even place settings for your guests over the holiday weekend. They’re very easy to make and it does involve painting your little one’s feet, which they’ll probably love. Not only will these be fun for this weekend, but when Christmas rolls around, you can stick them in the tree as ornaments.

American Flag Mason Jars

These fun mason jars from this blog are the perfect party additions to your weekend plans. They’re so easy and only have four items that you need! The best part is, most of you probably have ¾ of these ingredients at home. If you’re looking for a fun way to jazz up your table, these mason jars will do the trick. You can also add a candle to them to light up the evening gatherings too.

Red, White, & Blue Tin Windsock

Okay, these actually might win the ‘cuteness’ award. I found this fun craft on this blog and I can’t wait to add these to our decor for this weekend’s festivities! (I hope the family won’t mind!) They’re very easy to make and involve the kids helping by painting, gluing and finally hanging them to catch the wind.

  36. Звезда фильма «Один дома» Маколей Калкин в возрасте 40 лет впервые стал отцом. У них с партнершей Брендой Сонг 5 апреля родился сын Дакота Сонг Калкин. О счастливом событии пара рассказала журналу Esquire. – А какие рекомендации можно дать тем мужчинам, которые ограничиваются девизом «Помоги себе сам!», но при этом готовы заниматься профилактикой, чтобы жить долго, сохраняя потенцию и здоровье? При отсутствии половой жизни тестостерон снижается, а это влияет и на работоспособность, и на другую активность. Доказано, что мужчины с регулярным сексом значительно реже болеют, а вероятность инфарктов и инсультов снижается. Все эти факты идут вразрез с распространенным представлением, что мужчины думают о сексе каждые три секунды. У львиной доли возрастных пациентов (от 40 лет) проблемы с эрекцией связаны с сердечно-сосудистыми нарушениями и уровнем сахара в крови. Например, если мужчина жалуется на проблемы в интимной жизни и у него высокое давление, то уже догадываемся, в чём истинная проблема. В 1992 г. Национальный Институт Здоровья США принял решение об изменении, считавшегося оскорбительным для многих мужчин термина «импотенция» на более благозвучный и не столь кричащий термин «эректильная дисфункция». https://conorneill.com/community/profile/carsoncrum60048/ Если у вас возникли проблемы или вы хотите задать вопрос нашей службе поддержки, пожалуйста, воспользуйтесь формой обратной связи. «Как практикующий специалист в своей области, я активно пропагандирую использование капсул Предстакапс при лечении любых форм простатита. Но важно понять, что он не должен являться базовым препаратом. Предстакапс способен значительно повысить эффективность лечения и медикаментозной терапии, устраняет симптомы простатита, улучшает мужскую потенцию». В турагентстве E-Tourist сообщили, что сообщения об ухудшении эпидемической ситуации в Турции негативно повлияли на и без того низкий спрос на туры в эту страну. У подавляющего большинства мужчин возрастное угасание функции половых желез не сопровождается какими-либо проявлениями, нарушающими общее привычное состояние. Это физиологический процесс старения организма. При наличии сопутствующих заболеваний (например, вегетососудистой дистонии, гипертонической болезни, ишемической болезни сердца) их симптомы ярче проявляются в климактерический период. Что касается табакокурения, то это не болезнь, а вредная привычка. Организм привык к регулярному поступлению никотина, подстроился к нему и требует очередной дозы, причём требует весьма агрессивно. Как только он поймёт, что дозы больше не будет, – начнёт восстанавливаться сам. Но чтобы организм это понял – надо действительно бросить курить, а не заниматься самообманом.

  314. There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment?s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
