Some More Colouring..

Had these things laid out on a little corner in the living room. You'd finished your homework and so we decided to do a little something fun...


Yup, a little craft session. I'd been collecting toilet paper rolls for a while and it's cluttered a little corner in my room and if i didn't use them up soon, daddy's going to have a fit!! Had seen a good idea at this website so decided to do this today:

You started off painting your toilet roll blue after I'd helped you draw the lines and cut part of the roll. Of course, you being the non-conformist decided that your roll was to be multi-coloured instead of single colored like (boring) mummy... who followed the instructions to a T.

So what did we actually create? These...


Yup, octopus. You started off painting yours blue then decided to add a little red and when I told you that you'll also have to colour the insides, you wanted it to be green..

And yesterday evening after the paint had dried up, we used the puncher to make blue dots to be the "suckers" on the octopus' legs. We stick those on the legs then finished with the final touches of the eyes.

Here's my red octopus..




That was a fun session...
