Here’s a fun and easy way to add custom stamps to your child’s art supplies! Go check out Mel’s Own Place for a tutorial on making these stamps using bottle caps!

I love this set of personalized name blocks from Melissa at Chasing Cheerios!. These would make a great gift for any child, especially those just learning to spell their name. What a fun way to practice putting the letters in the right order! Older kids could take it a step further by rearranging the letters to see how many words they can spell using the letters in their name, and the younger ones could simply enjoy stacking and playing with the colorful blocks! Go to Chasing Cheerios for the how-to!

I’m loving this idea that Chez Beeper Bebe came up with for her 6 year-old’s birthday. Each card has a number and with it comes a gift in that number (e.g. 4 quarters for the number “4”). What a great way to make birthday gift-giving even more fun! Click here to read about the rest of the gifts and to download the template!

My two-year-old has been obsessed with learning how to spell her name for a while now. But, with 9 letters in all, she has quite a task in front of her. I think this fun game from Instructables user otterhop.com might be just what we need to help make it stick. Check it out here.

I know many people have fond memories of napkin notes slipped into their lunches by a loving Mom or Dad. Magpie Musing shows that you can still create special lunch-time memories without going through tons of paper napkins every day.

I LOVE Party Perfect’s version of a child’s first word book. The simple photography paired with the Scrabble tile words is just perfect! She had her book printed and bound, but a more affordable option could be to have your photos printed at a photo lab (or on a home photo printer) and use a small photo album to hold the pics!

This mosaic may be a bit overwhelming, so I want to bring your attention to a few things:

• I’m a sucker for embroidery so the pillow in the center is my absolute favorite. Be sure to click #8 to see the details.
• For you knitters out there, there’s a lone knitted tooth with pocket on the back on the bottom center. He’s a cutie-pie and you can find a pattern for him at Knit and Crochet Patterns.
• Take notice of the police fairy tooth (#9)…another one of my favorites from the group. His mouth is the pocket! MmmmCrafts has a pattern available for download for your personal use. Link

I really like these personalized display pieces (as seen on Tip Junkie). Here they’re used for teacher gifts, but I think they’d be equally at home in a child’s bedroom or playroom. Link (Thanks Julie!)

I love this monogrammed art piece inspired by a large chipboard “M.” Miki at Pursuit of Craftyness explains how it all came together by digging deep into her scrapbooking stash!
