Tissue Totem

Hey! Have you ever seen a family tree? Well, this craft is a little like that. Here is what you'll need. Toilet Paper Rolls( one for each member of your family) Some paint markers or crayons Tape or Glue 1. First thing you do is test your knowledge on what your family members like. Or you can do it two other easy ways. Give a toilet paper roll to someone, and tell them to customize it. Or, ask them what they want on it. 2. Each person gets a roll. Then you draw what ever reminds you of that person, or what they like, or traits they have, or etc. This might take awhile, because you want to do it nicely. 3. When you finish that, tape or glue one on top of the other. Tape works a little better. 4. Last, display it proudly in your house, or in your room.

Smoothie Maker

Ying Yang Nails

Do you like to do your nails? Well, I do, and recently, more like yesterday, I did something so cool. I made Ying Yang on my toes! If you've never seem Ying Yang before, I might suggest looking it up on google search to see if you want to put it on you nails. Anyways, I'll tell you how to make it. First, you need two different color nail polish. And a knitting needle or some kind of semi sharp stick. Now, dip the the stick into the nail polish and make a line with two curves through the center of you nail. This is a little hard but it might be easier if you know what Ying Yang looks like. Then once you have that line, It is a little easier. Now, this time, use the brush and paint the right side of the line black, and the left side, white. Wait for this to dry. Once it is dry, put a white dot in the lower right corner in the black. Then put a black dot in the upper right corner in the white. It is easier if you use the knitting needle for this.

Scary Hospitality

Trick or Treating isn't the only part of Halloween. If you ever give out the candy, here are some tips to make your guests shiver as they leave with you candy. 1. Talk in either a scary or funny voice. Say things haunting or weird, it will make the trick or treaters want to come over and over again! 2. Wear a costume! Who said you can't wear a costume when giving out candy! 3. Make sure you wear a costume, sit outside like a puppet or prop, with a bowl of candy next to you. When people get the candy, open your eyes all of a sudden and scream!!!! Be a little careful with little children, be more gentle with them. 4. Be nice!

Kindness on The Web

Hey! So, lately I've been on a website and I thought I should tell you what it is. Actually, it is three websites, but they are all connected. The first one is Helpothers.org it is a really cool website. It is about being kind to others, it has lots of stories and ideas on kindness. The second one is Charityfocus.org it is a little bit more about charity, volunteering and how you can help. The last on is karmatube.com which has videos and ideas on many different subjects, but the topics mostly relate to helping others. On these websites you can sign up as a volunteer, which I did and so far I learned a lot. These websites have definitely made an impact on me. I highly recommend looking at these websitesandif you want to have an idea of what I did as a volunteer, go on karmatube and click the "more videos" page. Then, in the search bar, type in "Carry The One" a video will come up, and click it. You will see the video and next to it, there is a description and something called "Be The Change", I wrote those. See you soon!:):):):):):):)
