I love this idea of organizing your schedule- you can write your month on the wall, and then as each day comes up, pull the sticky note and put it where you won't forget the events for the day! It's also super for kids to have a visual planner they can easily see and help with!
Put it's not just about wall decor! Look at this adorable origami! What a fun way to keep the kids occupied at Thanksgiving this year! Give them the bok and a stack of different colored stick it notepads, and let them keep themselves busy while making some adorable art!
The instructions are very easy to follow, as you can see, with clear diagrams, that show exactly how to fold each stick it page, and show each step, so even younger kids can follow along! Or have the kids lay out an easy to clean up table runner! Once they start, they may start designing their own, for each holiday!
At only $12.99, Stick It! is the perfect stocking stuffer or holiday table addition!
