After School Crafting.

I have started doing crafts once a week with three 5 years old. Two of these are mine the other is Laiken's good friend that I get on and off bus. The girls had decided last week that they would like to do a mermaid craft, and I said ok but thinking now what. So I put the question out to The Glitter Sisters about possible ideas and Violette gave me permission to use one of her beautiful drawings. The Girls thought it was great they colored the mermaid with marker first then painted glitter all over. They came out beautiful and the girls were very happy.






As you can guess Patrick a mermaid, he wanted a fireman. So I printed him one out and he colored for about 5 minutes and got bored (very typical Patrick and crafts). So I finished coloring and he came back to glitter.



Next weeks After School Crafting theme is Autumn Fairies and the Leaf Monster.
