Your family will love your extra effort to make life fun by adding a new look to your dinner table this month.  Here’s how to use what you have to honor your little athletes and celebrate the season.

• Dig out your kids old jerseys and line them down the center of the table as a runner. Or, if you have team pendants on your walls, take them down and repurpose them for the month as a pendant runner.
• Nothing says international like flags. If you have little ones, make placemats of different country flags and cover them with clear contact paper.
• Make a centerpiece: fill a vase with cut greenery from your yard; pile a clear bowl full of pine cones/nuts/ or even prize ribbons, or, grab an old trophy and place it front and center.
• Find those little outgrown mittens, hats, and scarves and arrange them around your centerpiece.

You get the idea, think winter sports and rummage around your house and yard to make your own personalized table scape. Solicit your kid’s creative input too. You might have to ‘take turns’ with different designs as they’ll come up with more ideas than you have room!
