What To Do Today - September Review

My sister and I represent the two ends of the mommy creativity spectrum. She has an entire arts & craft area in her basement that could outfit a preschool. When we go to her house, she pulls crafty, educational, hands-on ideas out of the air that keep the kids occupied for hours. Me? Not so much.

So I was very skeptical but interested in the What to Do Today? iPhone app. And I was pleasantly surprised. The app is organized like a map in which characters offer activities with complete verbal and graphic, multi-page instructions. Activities complement the season; the September app includes back-to-school activities like a collage organizer and a bookmark. Eleven crafts are included for the month.

Crafty mamas (like my sister) may look down their noses on this app, but for creatively-challenged mamas like myself, it's just about perfect. Definitely worth the money (though the craft supplies may set you back a bit more!).
