I started letting my 6year old use a low heat glue gun when she was 4 and she has never burned herself. She is a calm sort of child though,that probably makes a difference! I do make her use it on cookie sheet in case we forget to unplug it and then there are no messes.

Great, just great!
With my four kids around, I am so far the only one who has sustained major burns. But then again, I’m also capable of cutting myself with a butter knife. Maybe I shouldn’t own hot or sharp things at all.
And, yes, I agree– you are a COOL MOM. So much like my own mom, in fact. I don’t know how many times I cut my own hair before she stopped giving me the scissors…and I was, maybe, 3-years old…

Google eyes….I think we will be doing these at one of our Girl Scout meetings.

I think we will use glue dots. They cost more but are really fun to use and not hot.

I love the googlie eye frames, they are just so fun! The shell ones are gorgeous too and would nicely add a little beach to my house, but the googlie eyes just crack me up :).

Ah yes, babysitting misadventures… in my first week as a live-in nanny, one of the boys climbed up on the sink, slipped off, and had to have his chin sewn back together in the ER.
