The Learning Backpack!

If you're like us, you don't have a huge house with a spare room for all the cool things that you want to do (wish I did though lol).  I have a hard time organizing all of the arts and crafts items that we have and Little Mans learning activities.

 I have a closet in the laundry room that has a baby changing table with all of the arts and crafts stuff that we do and its great for keeping it out of the way but it was all getting mixed up with Little Mans stuff (things like his matching games, letters, dry erase book).

 

 

So I decided to put all of Little Mans educational activities into a box or bag that would be easy for him to get into. So I scoured the house searching for something to put all of this stuff in. My house is such a mess, we moved recently and still haven't found places for everything yet :(

 

Finally I had an idea, why not use Little Man's backpack from last year? It worked perfectly because his big binder and dry erase board fit inside, and the little things like his 3d shark cards (from a Wendy's kid meal...they have the best kids meal toys imo... always educational). I hang it on a hook inside of the craft closet so that it is out of the way.

 

Little Man loved it! It made all of our old activities fun again and he spent about an hour and a half playing with everything. Even his older sisters got into the fun! And its so easy to just throw everything back into the backpack when you are done!!
