Craft time

Instead of wasting Jack's morning naptime, I've decided to try to make it more of a constructive learning time for Hannah (or least attempt it anyway!). Up until now, about the only artsy activity she's done is coloring in her coloring books. Since I'm not crafty at all, I looked up some ideas and thought this one was doable for both of us. I glued a tree trunk to a piece of paper and cut out leaves. I then let Hannah glue them and stick them to the tree. She LOVED it! I discovered that she's very methodical (go figure with 2 parents who are engineers) and lined all of her leaves up in a perfect row down the trunk. When she was all done, we proudly displayed her artwork on the fridge for her to show Daddy when he got home.

I think craft supplies will definitely be on the Christmas list this year!
