Flower Power

P has started enjoying crafty things (typically a project with an expected outcome chaps his hide, but lately, not so much... he Loved making pom butterflies last month at a homeschool meet-up) so artsy crafts are creeping into our lives. Since the little man has been hot to trot about Spring, we've focused on flowers. The green roses were inspired by a site Aunt Alicia linked us to here (Thanks A!!!) The tissue flowers were our Earth Day project (I'm woefully behind on blogging!) to use up the tissue we've saved over the last year. P absolutely loved this one; his fingers were talented enough to form the flowers and the mounds of available tissue papers soothed his innate need to use Lots of any artistic media. A few days later, playing with his recycled truck from Uncle Ian, P explained to his pink monster that his Safari Truck was excellent because it reduced, reused and recycled.... :)
