Today, my good friend (and cousin-in-law) and I had the privilege of teaching a science lesson to a local fifth grade class. They have been studying plant and animal cells, so we decided to do a fun activity with them. This activity involved cupcakes and candy... I will admit that I was skeptical about 11-year-olds and sugar, but the kids were so great and well-behaved! Now before you start to freak out about how unhealthy this is, let me just tell you that the kids got fruit at lunch and a veggie snack later in the day. AND the activity consisted of a cupcake, 2 gummy bears, 1 M&M, 2 sour candies, and 1 sliver of a Twizzler. So, all in all, I think it is an okay activity to do once a year.
The kids were so excited!! It was so rewarding to have the opportunity to do something fun and out of the ordinary with them. Here are some pictures of their cell creations!
Moral of the story -- Fifth grade is not as scary as I thought. :)

Hey peeps!
Okay, it may take me a while, but I am going to get this whole “blog thing” figured out. This is my first post…here goes nothin’!
I am starting a small business from home called B’s Craft Corner.
We offer personalized gifts for all occasions. As of right now, we personalize wine glasses, acrylic cups (you know, the ones that come with lids and straws), and acrylic tumblers. Soon, we will be offering cake carriers, cutting boards, and decorative plates!
Below, I’m posting some pictures of some of the products I’ve been working on lately. Eventually, I’ll be finding a cute little outdoor spot where all of my pictures will be taken, but for now, you’ll just have to deal with the bland photos.
If you’re interested in purchasing a unique gift for your family and/or friends, just message me!
Acrylic tumbler w/ lid and straw: $15
Acrylic tumbler: $8
Wine glass: $7
I will post more prices as products become available.
