Travel activity boards/pillows




Yes, I know it is a miracle that I finally posted something new on this blog, but I finally have something that I think is worth posting.

My friend was the inspiration for these. I wanted to make something that my kids could put on their laps to draw and color on while we travel this summer. This is what I, with my friends help, came up with. This is a clip board (from the dollar store) attatched to a small pillow (that I made using my coupon from JoAnn's for the stuffing). I attatched it with velcro so the kids could take the board off and use the pillow to sleep on. If I would have had more velcro I would have taken it around the outside edges, but I think this will work.

I was able to make all 3 of these for under $10.

  2. So, my friend and I made 7 of these today--all we had to buy was the clipboards when we pieced all of our scraps together. So cute and so easy. Lyndee and her daughter made their own. Love them--thanks for the idea.
