Looking for fun ideas of things to do, make, see or buy this weekend? Check out our list of inspired ideas for your I-want-to-do-that list.
Create Your Own Craft Supplies
You can save money on crafting supplies by making your own -- and trust us when we say it's not that hard! Try this easy recipe for homemade finger paints from Milk and Cuddles, as well as homemade watercolor paints and playdough.
Replace a Lost Lovey
We once saw a sign offering a $200 reward for a lost stuffed animal -- and if your child has lost her lovey, you know how priceless those security items are. To the rescue: As U Wish Shop, a genius site devoted to helping desperate parents replace their little ones' cherished toys and loveys.
Make Cookies for Breakfast
Cookies for breakfast? Yes -- if they're these almond-cherry-quinoa breakfast cookies from Dinner: A Love Story. Giving your kids a "treat" first thing in the morning is sure to win you mom-of-the-year honors. (No need to tell them that the treat is actually healthy.)
Revisit a Classic
It's a tale as old as time (and if you've got princess-obsessed kids in your house, you've probably already seen it, oh, 152 times), but the 3D version of Beauty and the Beast is now out in theaters. Is this G-rated Disney classic right for your kids? Check out Common Sense Media's take on Belle and her friends.
