They're back! Ever wonder what happened to Sully and Mike before Boo invaded their world? This new Pixar film gets into the Monsters Inc. backstory with a tale of how the two friends met as Scare Majors at college. And if it's anything like the first film, mom and dad will love it as much as the kids! One Chicago Parent reader will win a family five-pack to the Classic Cinemas of their choice.
Give your Hanukkah gathering a handmade touch with this
mini-dreidel bunting we love from the
Creative Jewish Mom blog! She recommends using it on a cake,
and we think the kids would love to use it as a banner for their
toys and dolls.
embroidery thread or crocheting thread and a needle
double stick tape or glue
Directions
Play with your shapes on a flat surface, and rearrange and
re-size them etc. until you come up with a design that you
like.
Using needle and thread string the paper flags and dreidels
together.
Secure at each end to skewer, and add flags to skewer tops by
folding a strip of paper around the skewer, securing with double
stick tape, and cutting the notch.
Ta da! Use your mini bunting to decorate a cake, a fruit
platter, a plate of doughnuts, or even stick it into a pot of
succulents!
