August 2011 Progress

Completed in August: 2/101
Current Total: 51/101

19. Complete 30 new arts & crafts projects with Liam (17/30).

We were stuck at home one day while Hurricane Irene blew by, so we decided to tackle some arts & crafts. I saw an egg carton in the recycle bin, so we pulled it out and made egg carton ants and an egg carton caterpillar:


Then we cut this airplane out of a USPS box. Liam added the googly eyes so that it would look like Jeremy the Jet plane from Thomas the Train:


We got bored later that day, and there were packing peanuts that had come in the box we cut up to make the plane. I googled packing peanuts, and did you know that if you get them wet, they become sticky? You can stick them together and make all kinds of stuff. We stuck some to paper, and well, the results weren't too impressive. You have to get just the tiniest bit of water on them or they dissolve completely, so our peanut trains melted, but...we will try this again on another rainy day!


3 crafts in one day!
