I'll tell you the funny story first:
Today Littleman's preschool had a puppet show on recycling. All the three year olds participated - which means, my class and Littleman's class were present, along with ALL the teachers I've been working alongside since September. Before the show began, the presenter gave a little talk about what things can and can't be recycled. She held up a newspaper, an apple juice bottle, and then a can of hairspray. She asks the children, "Do any of your mommies use hairspray? Or your daddies use shaving cream?"
Little kids all around the room are murmuring a collective, "Yesss," when I hear Littleman from across the room pipe up, loud and clear, "MY mom uses shaving cream."
Yep. That's what I get for letting my son take a shower with me when I need to shave my underarms. (Sorry, was that TMI?)
As for the crafts, I have been craft CRAZY. Little man and I have been making turkeys and Indian corn like its our job.
And, here's what I am most proud of. I got the idea from a catalog and knew I could make it myself. It's an advent calendar so Littleman can SEE how many days until Christmas. I'd be happy to make one for you...for 10 bucks - simply because it takes so long to cut out all the "balls." I also painted a little "treasure" box to store the balls - and velcro strips so you can see all the numbers clearly.
That's great! What a neat idea.
