The Secret to Entertaining Twins on a Budget

I often see negative posts on Facebook about how some of us were so blessed to be raised before the invention of the internet, computers, tablets, and the likes because as kids, this forced us to be creative.

I have good news!

Creativity is not dead.

Today, my seven year old twins have been able to entertain themselves for HOURS with tape and printer paper.

Yes, my stack of paper is half gone.

Yes, they went through one roll and a half of tape.

Yes, there are little itty-bitty bits of paper all over my living room.

Who cares?

They had fun!

They were creative and they are so proud of their creations.

I can buy more paper and tape and they WILL clean their mess.

Little boys must grow up and  in the meantime I am so grateful for the messes they make and the smiles they put on my face.

I hope this makes you smile too.

On a side note: Excuse the mess, I have been "Spring" cleaning in July going through closets and such...so basically, my house is a mess.

Blessings!
