Pretty soon my kids' friends will be too old for something like this as a birthday gift, so I am milking this time as much as I can. My Gage had a 5 year old birthday party to go to. Okay, maybe this wouldn't thrill a 5 year old, but it could thrill his mom and him (eventually). I love making the kidlet from JCasa's tutorial and just beefing it up to a big kidlet. I make mine 13 wide x 15 tall instead of 11 x 11. I also left out the pocket for reasons of laziness and wanting to be done in less than an hour (because I started it late). Sometimes I wonder if I am really just lazy or a speed crafter. I prefer the latter, but I think I know what I am deep down inside! I did fill it with coloring books and crayons, but ideally I like the one by my daughter's bed (hanging from her bed post) filled with the books she likes me to read to her at night.

Definitely a speed crafter ;) lol It is very cute. The last bday party I went to I made instead of bought the gift. A red tutu filled with rose petals. She loved it. I look over the tutorial for the kidlet and try it out for the next bday. =) Thanks
Cute! I know what you mean about kiddos getting too old for certain things, that's why I'm having so much fun making stuff for my girls before they decide my stuff isn't so cool. :) The kidlet is on my list, I love your idea about putting it near their bed for books.
I am a speed crafter too. At least I prefer to be. I really like this bag. It is so simple yet I know my kidlet would love it! :)
