Today we made a shaker out of a fanta bottle.  Jolie loved cutting the paper more than anything.  She cried when I took the scissors away.  Jemma loved it though!

Too funny!

What a fun activity! Do you think she’d have the patience to do ice cream?

suzy posted the following on July 18, 2009 at 3:59 pm.

How fun! I love your many activites! WHat is the name of that book your using?

I’m a little late posting this entry!  We did this activity the other day.  I decided to teach Jolie how to make some jewelry.  I had a bunch of beads in my craft bin, so I thought we’d make the girls some bracelets.  Jolie had a great time stringing the beads.  I was surprised that she could even get the little string through the hole, but she did!  Pretty good for a two and a half year old.  : )  This one was Jemma’s…

P.S. – Don’t worry…I didn’t let Jemma wear it long.  Last thing I need is for her to choke on some beads!  We’ll save it for Church when I’m holding her the whole time to supervise what goes in her mouth.  ; )

That is pretty skilled for a 2 1/2 year old – lovely bracelet and wonderful captures of your crafting together. I did loads of crafts with mine when they were smaller – just didn’t think to photograph it.

suzy posted the following on July 17, 2009 at 1:02 am.

What a fun activity! I’ve made them for my daughter before but didn’t think she was old enough to help me. She’s about the same age so I’m going to do this with her now. TFS!

Wtg Jolie, that is great for 2.5!! I love the bracelet, so pretty.

So so sweet. I just love her little hands.

What a fun craft to do with your daughters!! And so pretty too!

Pat posted the following on July 17, 2009 at 9:00 am.

What a great shot of the 2 of you together! You can just tell from the set of her mouth how intently she is concentrating! Fun activity–I love that shot. Brilliant idea.
