The kids love to do arts and crafts, so we try to make some time to get our creativity flowing!
This day we were making animal headbands with ears and noses. This was the first set that we made- bunnies with the big ears and we glued on the noses after this. We realized after trying them on that the ears that Aaron & Connor had were too big and wouldn't stand up, so we had to cut the down a little smaller!
Maggie's orange eared bunny!
The second one that the boys decided on were supposed to be leopards, I believe! I drew the ears with markers and then the boys cut them out (and I did hand over hand with Maggie to cut hers- she can't be left out of the cutting). Aaron decided to just cut squares around his and not cut on the lines this time!
These are the finished product of the bunnies with their cotton ball noses! So cute!
This was Maggie's first attempt at painting with water colors. We decided to paint on their Build A Bear boxes (which have since been re-purposed for wrapping birthday gifts.) After I took this picture, I turned around to help Aaron get his paints open, and Maggie was already drinking the dipping water for her paintbrush!!! I quickly got it away from her and was relieved to find out that the Crayola water colors are non-toxic! Phew.....
Needless to say, I helped her paint with water colors for another couple of minutes and then she moved on to markers!
Aaron is quite the little painter!
