I’m not great at shopping for toys — unless it’s cool, vintage toys like those in my son’s nursery. Of course, those neat antique toys are probably covered in lead paint and not really recommended for anything besides decorative purposes. Anyhow, Christmas and Birthday gift buying for a kid is just not my area of …
Last Christmas, I made several gifts from sculpey clay, including these chalkboards.
