I just want to congratulate you and thank you for your blog to share it with others, there is much creativity and style. I do not write English very well apologize for typos. thanks

Laura Frunza #
I did most of the musical instruments presented on your site: the rice shakers, the guitar and the tubular cardboard bells and we loved them. My daughter played with the guitar a long time until all the rubber bands snapped. Great ideas, I’ll keep on reading you. Here’s how they turned out (not as pretty as yours, but definitely, as entertaining): http://laurafrunza.com/2011/03/31/instrumente-muzicale-din-reciclaje/

Howdy would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m looking to start
my own blog soon but I’m having a hard time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something
completely unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to
ask!
