Loving the Carnival Glitter Glue!

eeBoo Carnival Glitter Glue

Next to glow-in-the-dark toys, glitter glue is on my personal top hit parade of great playthings. There’s just something so satisfying about glitter glue.  We just got in the new line of Carnival Glitter Glue from eeBoo.  Each of the 4 tubes look like peppermint sticks with two tones. At $5 a pop, this is a fun activity craft that won’t break the bank.

Planning a Pirate Party?

Just in, and really cute– Pin the Parrot on the Pirate game from eeBoo.  If you’re planning a pirate filled birthday bash-this variation on Pin the Tail on the Donkey will be a great party game. Comes complete with a green bandanna — the goal here is to take one of the “parrot” stickers and land him on the Pirate’s shoulder.
