Craft Time

I've tried to incorporate a time into our day so the big boys and I get to do something fun. Each day we've done a little "craft" as I call them. We've done play-doh, cheerio projects, some beading projects, and stuff like that. It's nothing major, I just want us to do something...anything really...together.

Anyway, today's craft was painting. We had a lot of fun!

Both boys are deciding which color to use next.

Jason was all about the black today.
Shawn discovered that the piece that held the paint came out of the plastic holder.
He was lost in his work to separate the two after this.

See, mommy? Look at my pretty picture!

Shawn had then discovered that his water dish held water, so he was determined to spill it everywhere, so he didn't get another picture with his beautiful artwork. Hey, I've got to pick my battles. :-)

Here's the boys' work on the side of the fridge.

As we were painting, Jason spied what he wants our next project to use--googly eyes. He is most impressed by them. Now I have to put on my thinking cap and come up with something to do with them!
