my mother read about this idea online and decided to do a craft activity for lainakay's birthday. so we all got bags and painted a face on it-this is my sorry face-no artistic talent here. but the concept is that the bag gobbles up what the kids don't clean up before going to bed. then they lose the toy for a week. if it is returned to them and left out again then perhaps the toy is not so important and can be given away. so we will try it and see how it works.Tuesday, August 14, 2007

I've heard of these bags. We do that only we have a trash bag - not as cute. Looks like I know what I'll be making...like I need more projects.
That is a cute idea. I may be needing to borrow that idea myself!
I love the idea!!!! It is a fun way to make a good point- Pick Up!
Ok- you made a great face! What type of bag did you use?
I have been considering a similar idea for a while... I am just such a sucker about actually giving away toys the kids really like, but I am also so tired of the same things left out over, and over, and over and... well, you get the idea, you have kids too! :-)
lacie-i'm not sure what the material on the bag is and there is not tag.-sorry. it's like a fake canvas that they make those fold up boxes out of. a canvas bag would prob. work great too.
