How to Make Book Band-Aids
Be honest—how many boxes of Band-Aids have your kids gone through this year? They say raising a kid from 0-18 costs around a million dollars… and I swear half of that is spent on Band-Aids. My kids are obsessed. Every tiny boo-boo? Instant Band-Aid. So when I saw this activity, I had to add it to the list. Especially since King George Loses the Battle has a page full of Band-Aids—because bringing the pages to life is what I love to do!
