New Month, Old Goals

Perhaps this blog was not the best idea for this year! I can count on one hand who reads it. It was a great idea. Just bad timing, I guess.

Since there is a slide made for this month of June, I should upload it. But I keep getting errors. Instead, here's a list of what we have started in past months and still need:


76 quart sized ziplock bags
185 bars of soap (wrapped, but not in individual boxes, please!)
180 washcloths
161 toothbrushes
23 stuffed animals/dolls
40 activity books (Kristin finds great ones at JoAnn Fabrics!)

Also, for the few that DO read this blog, I have a question:
Since we decided to fill boxes for 2-4 year olds, do we want to not do (as many) school supplies? We could perhaps not put in notebooks if we don't have them; and put in less pencils, maybe 3 instead of 5 and 1 pen instead of 3? What do you think? Please email me or post here!

  1. Originally I thought it was 2 different age sets 2-4years old and like 11-14 or something that we were focusing on. Is that incorrect? I think it would be okay to lessen the amount of school supplies in that manner & increase the toy/craft count by one if desired/able. Also keep in mind that not every box has to be exactly the same, some could have more pencils/pens than others and a notebook in some and not in others
