Valentine's Day and Groundhogs

 Hello

Thanks for popping in to see what we have been up to.

We have been keeping busy over the last few weeks, creating so much.  

I'm a firm believer that kids learn so many skills and get such a sense of pride creating.

So, here's what we've been up to.

GROUNDHOG DAY

Groundhog and Shadows

We learned about Groundhogs and that we will have an early Spring?

Snow and Arctic Animals

 Welcome

Winter here hasn't been typical with warmer temperatures and not that much snow.  

That sure didn't stop us from doing some creating with a snow theme and we learned lots about Arctic Animals.

So, here's what we did the last few weeks.

Snowmen Wreaths

We used a paper plate as the base, added the snowman details then some cotton for the snow.

 Welcome

So much going on in January and I feel like the month just flew by.  

I've been keeping the kids busy crafting as we started the New Year and winter months.

Lots of fun as my kiddos love the snow.

So, here's what we've been up to the last few weeks.

The kids coloured some cupcake liners, I cut them to look like fireworks and then we glued them onto the black paper.

Christmas Gifts and Party Time

 Welcome

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.

I had some time off but before that, we were super busy creating all kinds of special presents for the parents.  

The kids were so excited about having treasures to give their Moms and Dads.

So, here's what we did.

The Stockings were hung....

Rudolph Ornaments

I hot glued some clothespins together and we decorated them.

Christmas Stars

I hot glued the popsicle sticks together in the shape of a star and the kids glued some green and red gems onto them.

Wooden Snowflakes

I bought some wooden snowflakes at the Dollar Store and glued 2 together with a small wooden block between them.  The kids decorated them with lots of little details.

Popsicle Stick Rudolph

Photo Ornaments

Candle Holders

I was given a bag of metal bangles, so I used some hot glue to stack them together and then glued that onto an old CD.  The kids decorated with colourful gems along the base and we added a candle to the middle.

Block Snowmen

I picked up some wood blocks, painted some black and some white and glued them together.

The kids added the details with google eyes, buttons and some ribbon.
