Best Summer Ever: Day 52

Indulge in a home facial while the kids are busy doing crafts. (Just don't mistake the craft glue for the facial mask.)

TIP: Treat yourself to locally-made skincare products
that are as good for you as they are for the earth.
That way you can feel virtuous as well as pampered. Ahhh.....

I blogged about arts and crafts play as part of my carnival of play. Includes links to several great sites, including No Time for Flash Cards:

Those "carnivals of..." are an amazing source of resources of all types. (Thanks so much for the link to your carnival of play post and the link to No Time for Flash Cards: http://www.notimeforflashcards.com I love her site. I've had the opportunity to get to know Allie on Twitter and she's a lovely person -- very generous with resources, just like you!)

Quick question: Could you -- or anyone else who is reading this -- remind me where to go to find a directory of all the carnivals?

Thanks,
Ann
