My son became super excited about making our family today. This, of course, excited me! We had a lot of fun! I had precut some simple clothes for him to make us with. This creates good conversation about gender and articles of clothing. After he put our outfits together and glued them down, he was excited to do the heads. He did not, however, want to give us hair.... which is why we are all 3 bald. I asked him to tell me some things about the picture and our family and I wrote it on the page at the top. This is one of my favorite things he has made. I think the main reason is because he was so excited about his family. :)
"This is Tristan, Daddy and Mama. It has Beamer too! Thank you for loving me, Mama." -Tristan
The clothes were made from random fabric pieces I had around the house. I could have made the faces or heads to have Tristan glue down, but I wanted it to show more of his work. It everything had been pre done, I was afraid it would take away from that.
Tristan loves Finding Nemo. This obviously looks nothing like Nemo, but he still enjoyed making his fish. He found a box of beads in my craft things and wanted to use those to glue on. I had planned on using sequins and other sparkly things, but this is what he wanted. Fine with me! I think he did a really good job.
