This week's fun craft projects started out Monday with making two-a fun turtle and some birds. The tail feathers for the bird were more challenging than I was expecting. Connor lost interest with the tail feathers, but enjoyed putting the bird together. I did two birds with tail feathers and then I gave up too. With or without the feathers they turned out pretty cute.
So simple-just an empty fruit cup, paint, cardstock and googly eyes...all of which we had.
I got this pattern out of a craft book I borrowed from the library.
Generally we work on projects while Chloe takes her morning nap, but sometimes we're too excited and just have to get busy right after breakfast. I placed her bowl of cereal on the table to get some supplies ready, she helped herself.
On Wednesday this super cool cricut cartridge arrived in the mail (beep beep). Connor and I got busy making these. He held the instruction booklet and repeatedly told me which vehicles we hadn't made yet. There will likely be more made this week. Wednesday we cut all the pieces out and then Thursday we put them together after we made a quick trip out for some glue sticks.
Friday he painted a race car and we attempted to make flower paint prints with the end of some romaine lettuce.
Saturday we went to the farmers market in Poway and had a great time. We came home with a lot of fruit and a fun flower pinwheel thing for our garden. Then we headed out to the wild animal park where we met up with cousins and family visiting from Michigan. We had a great time. Then we went to Sean and Amy's for dinner. It was a big party-14 children and 10 adults.
