Would be the perfect fathers day gift for a dad who loves his tunes. let the kids decorate it a little and add that personal touch to it.

how to clean your laptop keypad


After about the 100th time I wrote "lean" or "roken" or some other word that should have had a "c" or a "b", only to find that "c" and "b" were on strike. I decided it was time to clean the ol keyboard on my laptop. I thought Id share the "how to" with you guys.

Everything seems to be in working order now and my only regret is that I can't blame a dirty keyboard for my typos anymore.

If your kids are like mine it can be frustrating to spend hours making them some awesome thing you just know they will love only to have them throw it down after about 15 minutes. So here is a fun, cheap, dollar store craft that only uses pipe cleaners, glue, pompoms, and craft eyes. Infact the kids can help you make them. and if you are really thrifty like me, when they are done playing with them you can deconstruct them and make something else with them later.

Have fun, go wild, use your imagination. You can twist them and bend them into any type of finger puppet you want. make finger puppet people, finger puppet pets, finger puppet farm animals,  you could make an entire finger puppet family. you could probably use a cereal box to make a finger puppet theater if you get your creative juices flowing.

What fun for just pennies per puppet..

The basic idea is to coil the pipe cleaner around your finger, leaving enough room at the end to shape your head. then glue on some eyes, maybe a pompom nose, or you could even cut felt pieces to glue on for facial features and hands and or feet..

This is a fun, quick, creative craft project perfect for sunday school, summer camp, rainy days,
