Paint~ Prayer Children...

I found these cute little prayer children at the local craft store, for $1. We painted them, and then I put a white thread threw the little whole in them. The A's will be hanging these by their beds to remind them to pray!

We love painting, especially A6 {oh what a mess she makes!!!}

Longer Projects


This week A1 has been gone to scout camp, having tons of fun I am sure! So I did a few longer activities or projects with A2 & A3. We are making aprons. I will show a finished project, soon I hope! This is a picture of A3 working on her embroidery. A3, needs a different colored thread. The other photo is A4 making a army tank, we purchased at Hobby Lobby. It was a hit, by the way. He now wants some paper army guys to sit in it.

Rock Painting

Just as the title says, rock painting! I told everyone to go outside and find themselves a rock. Then they chose how to paint it. I will spray them with a clear spray paint, and then they can put them outside, to help decorate the yard!

Noodle Art!

Supplies:
Noodles and rice, lots of different shapes and sizes!
Paper, Heavy duty. I had some foam pages for kids crafts. That's what we used. Though after I did it, I thought I should have cut up that large cardboard box we have out back.
Glue, we used school glue. Lot's of Glue!
This is what I did for little A6. She wanted a letter "A" then I smeared glue all over her page, and let her decorate, however she wanted.





I gave the A's very little directions on this. I laid out all the supplies, said we will make a picture with out paint, crayons or colored pencils. To get the details, and look, you need to think of texture. I had them lay out their main picture or idea, before they started gluing. It was a fun, and messy project!
