We've been working on this alphabet book to reinforce the letter sounds with my favorite three year old. It's coming along nicely, except for the X and Z pages which are still blank. The pictures so far have been cut out of old magazines, but I think I may just have to print out a zebra and a xylophone.
This is a piggy that my three year old made out of two formula lids. We have an overabundance of formula containers from her little brother, but I won't give them away to the recycling truck because they are so handy for crafts. We rummaged through the craft supplies and found a pink button for the nose, pipe cleaners for the legs, tail, and ears, and some funky red googly eyes.
This is a turkey tin that I made with one of my favorite little nippers. First we covered an empty baby formula can in brown paper (from a grocery bag) and cut out a head. Then we had these cool craft foam popsicle sticks that she glued to the back and the head for feathers. We also cut some sticks in half for the wings. She glued on google eyes, and glued on the body parts that I cut out of foam.
This is the flower bracelet that is ever popular with the little girls. I get so sick of making these things!
Today we made some paper roll binoculars. Not the most creative thing in the world, but my favorite three year old had fun playing I spy with them. My favorite almost two year old enjoyed blowing into his like a horn. He wasn't even upset that they didn't make noise!
