2 weeks ago Melody told me about her school project that was due this week. The project was to create a model of land formations and types of water sources. Fast forward Thursday at 730 pm. "Remember mom the project is due tomorrow." This is reason 879 that I love being a mother. So, salt dough gets made (thanks grandma!!) and we use a discarded Barbie box for a background. In less than an hour she had the best art project in the class.
Procrastination has its advantages. (oh no did I teach the fifth grader that???)
You totally scored with the Barbie box!!! I'm quite impressed with your "under an hour" masterpiece!
ReplyDeletewhew, it's good to know that procrastination pays off. I always cringe when I think of how badly that trait of mine might screw up future children ;)
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I love the salt dough I can't tell you how many times I wanted to eat that stuff. (and always regretted when I did).
