Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Two Cool Craft/Games

Haven't posted a craft in too long! These are both craft/games we've put together.
 
The First: Music Shaker
 
This one was fun to make. It is 2 small paper plates, some tissue paper, stickers, glue stick, popcorn and staples.
 
The one we made here represents the ocean! Katelyn took her time dragging a glue stick all across the bottom of the plates, and then she stuck the colored tissue on the glue, and decorated the "water" with stickers. She did this on both sides.
 
Then she put two handfuls of popcorn kernels on one of the plates, covered with the other, and then  stapled them together...WaaaaLaaaa - She has a music maker. (Which she wouldn't leave at home and had to shake through most of an hour long trip to the grocery last week.)

This week's craft was a bit messy on our skin, but eh...it was alright.
 
At tumbling we played this clothes pin drop game that she seemed to enjoy a bit. So...I was thinking of something to do this morning and this is what we got. I dug up the markers and clothes pins and she spent some time coloring them with me, and after a little time to dry, she stood on the step stool and tried dropping them into the box. I guess it was kind of educational too since we counted how many she made.
