There are several gift exchanges going on now to welcome the new school year and one group of mommy bloggers from all over the U.S. came up with a great idea for the kids \u2013 Back to School Busy Boxes. Here is how it works according to the group\u2019s exchange homepage: Create one &#8220;busy box&#8221; focusing on a pre-school age (approx. 2-3 yrs. age) learning concept.\u00a0 Brownie points if made with items easily available in one\u2019s home or $1 spot\/$1 store type finds, as to promote as &#8220;easy and frugal&#8221;.\u00a0 Take photos and write up how you created it.\u00a0 We will first share what we received, and then ask followers to try to make their own too.\u00a0 We will recap a week later with a link up sharing the How To. Elfster loves to be a part of such creative exchanges and we\u2019d love to see your Busy Boxes!
