This week I present a couple of cool activities you can do with your kids – tye-dyed t-shirts made easy (see pictures for example and the dye used, SEI TumbleDye, which I got at Hobby Lobby ), and gardening in a pot or a spot! Then we have some voicemails from Gary about Legos and Tim about games and the Nintendo Power Glove. Finally, Wyatt calls in again to give us another Xbox Live update!

    That Tie Dye stuff sounds like fun! Ashley and I are going give that a try. I heard you can draw on the shirts too with wax, and then after it will flake off and you have whatever you drew on there permanently?
