I’m fairly a newbie to world of Borax. I first discovered it uses when I began writing Becoming Homegrown and was just beginning to become more natural and self sufficient. Borax was introduced to me as multi-use tool that can do almost anything.
My first foray into Borax usage was making homemade laundry detergent. I had no idea what it actually was, so it was a challenge finding it at the grocery store. Now, almost two years later, I always keep Borax on hand for cleaning as well as laundry detergent.
Here are a few links to fellow bloggers that have a Borax recipes found on Pinterest:

Constructing the set was incredibly easy and the hexagon arenas allowed for many options for new pathways. The ramp was a huge hit in the creation process because everyone wanted to be able to have a clear view of “their” bug climbing to the top. It wasn’t long after the habitat was finished that all the bugs needed to test their skills.

After prying them away, I was able to check out the shoes for myself. I was really impressed. They are extremely nice shoes that look like regular skate shoes but these are ACTUALLY skate shoes. One feature that I really like was the fact the wheels are removable and come with a hard plastic piece to seal the hole when the wheel is not in place. This is great if you are going to the store and don’t want to be killed with the death rays shooting from other peoples eyes as they watch your kid roll along.
