What do you think these will be?
This is a Monkey and Mummy only project I just hope they work out. We'll be doing some more work on them on Friday I hope so stay tuned!
As for this.... Well as many know I love scrap booking my kids lives, but I am always finding there are little mementos that I just don't want to get rid of which don't fit int the scrapbook and I have no way of easily storing them.
I decided the kids could make memory treasure boxes to store all those trinkets in. We started with plain papermachie boxes and painted them white. Then the following sunny day we headed outside for a little art time (as we are renting Im a little paranoid about paint in the house with Miss Boo). I did help Miss Boo a bit, but boy did she have fun mixing the colours and trying all the different brushes. She didn't even eat too much of it.
As for Monkey this is the first time we have done painting together where he has been totally adamant about where each color was to go, and the fact that the bottom had to be yellow all over. I was amazed when he drew a Sun in the pink bit cause it was coming up and then a Moon and some stars in the blue bit for night time. He was very precise. I always love seeing how his creativity is developing.
We have also found two new awesome playgrounds.. particularly awesome for their fenced in qualities! We have yet to find a slide that Miss Boo can ignore. She views each as a challenge, gaining confidence to go faster each time. She's even started doing tricks... rolling over towards the bottom so she comes off the end standing ready to run!
