sun catchers

i love crafting with my girls...and they love it too.  Colorbök has the most amazing kids crafts, and they have been totally awesome about sending me tons of them.

 

it is so important to do arts and crafts with our little ones, it helps them learn to express themselves  and teaches them confidence.

i will say that this particular project suggests that your little ones be 6 years old.  

 
my reagan is 3 and ireland is 2.  reagan stuck with it till the end with some one on one attention which lasted about an hour, but ireland only lasted about 20 minutes.

that is really pretty amazing for reagan, she has a very short attention span.

what i really loved about this project is that not only did it teach creativity, but it helped the girls identify, match, and recognize shape and color.

and of course, kids LOVE to show off their creations...reagan is no exception...she really loved hers!!!

it is not too sunny here in washington right now, so this is the best i could get in way of sun catching, but they hang proudly in our kitchen...and the girls love them!!!
