We've been having a blast getting our craft on these days!Dane is especially fascinated with snowmen* so that's what we've been spending a lot of our craft time making. Above is a sampling of some of the art we have made. For obvious reasons, his favorite was the marshmellow snowman. Needless to say, Dane now loves marshmellows! Maybe I should think about having him make a chicken or turkey snowman....hmmm... :)
Dane's other favorite was the Q-tip glitter snowflake. He loves shaking the glitter out of the bottle. So we combined his two favorite things - words and glitter and we've been making glitter names of all of our family. Dane absolutely loves these pieces of paper. He reads and plays with them all the time. Once we finish making everyone in the family, I'd like to make a book out of them for Dane and then he'll know how to read all of your important names!
*I'm pretty sure I have Wendy and Curtis to thank for this one. They gave Dane a snowman that sings "Jingle Bells" and he would sing and dance to that thing all day if we let him! After about 3 rounds of "Jingle Bells" Mommy and Daddy have had enough. Well, let's be honest - after only 1 round Daddy has usually had enough, so the poor singing snowman has mysteriously disappeared. He's spending some quality time with Dane's glasses!
