I love reading crafty blogs, but I hate the fact that most of them craft for girls. Most sawing projects are dresses, and even when they are pants, they are cropped. Do we really need a cottage industry devoted to making even more clothes that make girls look like Easter eggs? (No, I’m not bitter. Although I do think that there is a shortage of girl clothes that look cool, and not like something from Strawberry Shortcake.)

So I was glad to see that there is a whole month of crafting for boys over at Dana Made It Blog: Celebrate the Boy! Check out these projects; they look pretty cute. In a manly way. I would totally sew up any of these, if only I could find a few minutes where I have my hands free AND can make noise.

And, for more things to make, MAKE Magazine has a tutorial for making your own photo cube! Elijah loves to play with these, and your toddler might be entertained as well.
