10 Crafty ways to surprise people

-

 My dad is NEVER surprised, so I got inspired to come up with fun ways to surprise people who aren’t easily surprised. These are super sweet too, so they are fine for kids and people who hate surprises. Great for birthdays, harmless April Fools, and other such occasions. 


1. Balloon door 

When they are sleeping, tape a bunch of multi-colored streamers over their door. Make sure to just tape it on the wall, not on the door. Pop a bunch of balloons through the holes in the streamers, not securing them tightly. When they open the door, a cascade of balloons will fall out on them! 


2. Underwear swap

Switch all the family member’s underwear. Switch a father’s underwear with a baby’s diaper etc. 


3. Rubber ducks 

Buy a BIG pack of rubber ducks. Fill the kitchen drawers, cabinets, closets, everywhere! with rubber ducks. 


4. Breakfast in bed 

Plan a special meal for a beloved family member and serve it to them for no reason. They’ll be so happy, and so surprised! 


5. Balloon closet 

Fill a closet entirely with balloons and tell a friend to open it. 


6. Smoking toilet 

Close the toilet lid. Place two rolls of toilet paper on top, acting as eyes. Place a hat on top of the “eyes”, stick a paper towel roll between the lid and the rim of the toilet, and yell “the toilet is smoking!”


7. Flooded bathroom 

Similar to the previous surprise, this is a cute joke. Grab some water bottles and form a line of them coming out of the bathroom. Yell “there’s water coming out of the bathroom!” 


8. Colored water

Dip a Q-tip in some green food coloring and swab the sink faucet. When the family member or friend turns on the water to fill their cup, it will pour out green! (Note: after surprise, rinse faucet with some soap and water.) 


9. Jello Juice 

Do your siblings love their fruit juice? Fill a glass with jello mixture, stick a straw inside, and let it harden. 

When they go to get a drink, they’ll get a real surprise! 


10. Rotten Milk 

Draw a mean face with a Sharpie on the carton of milk in the fridge. Yell “ the milk went bad!”

Christmas to do list:

 Here is a handy to do list now that the Christmas season is really upon us. I hope this will help you stay organized while appreciating the spirit and joy of this holiday. We all know they can get a little stressful, but if we keep organized and focus on blessings and gratitude, there is nothing we can’t handle.  1. Put up your decorations. You can go minimal or bold but we all know the importance of some decor. Hopefully the second your tree is up you’ll instantly feel more Christmasy.  2. Volunteer or help someone in need. This is a little cat with special needs. Sometimes he wobbles when he walks. I love him. Spread the Christmas love this season.  3. Dream of a white Christmas, and take advantage of the snow days we do have. Snowball fights, snow angels, sledding, the possibilities are endless. Spend these days outside and don’t waste them. Take the days off from responsibilities.  4. Do your Christmas baking. Package up boxes to send to neighbors and family.  5. Test out Christma

A Socially Awkward Teen

-
 Hi! So recently, I decided to go shopping. I’m not normal a huge shopper, but it was my great grandma’s 90th birthday and I needed a nice dress for pictures. So I decided to go to Ross Dress For Less. Don’t judge me. Now, as you probably know, in a Ross Dress For Less, anything goes.  Anyway, I was having trouble finding a dress that I would wear to a 90th birthday party and not a Vegas Night Club. But I just couldn’t. So I decided I would probably wear something I already had.  But, being the homeschooled quarantine socially awkward teen that I am, I was so petrified that someone would think I had done something wrong if I didn’t buy a dress. So I got a dress and headed to the fitting rooms. I got my clothes number and headed to a stall. The lock was a bit janky but I managed. I went back out and headed for my cart but was stopped by a worker who said I needed to give him my card. I did not have my card.  He forced me to go back to the changing room TWICE but I couldn’t find anything
