ExCL

In the fall, we joined a place called "Extras for Creative Learning" or ExCL. They get donations of office/craft supplies, and random goodies which they put out for members to take. We get a certain number of visits per year, and can take as much as we want on each visit. We hadn't been since we joined, and Luis has been wanting to come, so we went out there this weekend.

They had so much cool stuff this time. In addition to tons of craft stuff, we also got a wooden tabletop hockey game, a Little People farm, and toy golf clubs (to play Mario golf, of course). As soon as we got home, Taye had me make him a Mario with some of the sticky felt we got. He then added stickers to give Mario 'star power.'



From there, we found other uses.


The sticky felt has been the big hit so far, I wish we got more!
