Many families have yearly traditions to get their children excited about school. This week, I’ll be posting about some of those traditions from creative bloggers.
The Magic School Bus comes to Everything’s Pink’s house and drops off some fun school supplies and a gift the night before school starts. They also take a photo showing with fingers what grade they are going into. What a great way to watch in photos how they grow!

Robert Bradford is a British artist renowned for his vibrant and imaginative sculptures crafted from recycled soft toys and other found materials. His “Toy Stories” series showcases life-size and larger-than-life representations of animals and humans, meticulously assembled from an array of colorful plastic bits, buttons, brushes, combs, and parts of clothes pegs.
Each sculpture is a playful yet poignant commentary on consumerism and the disposable nature of modern society. By repurposing discarded toys, Bradford breathes new life into these objects, transforming them into captivating works of art that invite viewers to reflect on themes of waste and sustainability. ?
Bradford’s soft toy sculptures have garnered international acclaim, with his works displayed in galleries and exhibitions worldwide. His innovative approach to art continues to inspire and engage audiences, bridging the gap between childhood nostalgia and contemporary artistic expression.?
