Art Project
Last night me and Tyler worked on his Valentine Art Project. We spent like an hour and half on this thing! We knew he had to do this project earlier in the week, so I have been searching the internet looking for something creative for us to do. (Trust me, I HAVE to search the internet, I think the other mothers contract out their children's art projects!!) The assignment was to take these three hearts and make them into a mobile being as creative as possible. He also had to write a story about them. So, I found this web site that showed me how to make hearts into animals - I printed the page and showed Tyler what we were going to try and do. His response, "Mom! This is going to be such a good idea!" Already I feel like a winner! I love it when he show appreciation and happiness, we were on the right track. I learned that I am not cut out to be a teacher and Tyler learned how to cut hearts, glue glitter onto them and paste on some googly eyes! We made an elephant, a butterfly and a mouse. They really were cute. When he took them to school this morning he told me that he was sure he was going to have the best one! I certainly hope so Tyler.
