On Monday it was the 100th day of school for the
girls. Michaela’s class really did not
plan anything but Sophia’s class was going to be having a celebration. They were given a project to do…I have to
admit I was very excited…our first school project. I have told my husband that once they enter
the world of paper projects I will completely let that be all him but if it
involves glue or other crafty stuff…it’s mine!
They had to bring in 100 objects and it could be anything and they
needed to display them somehow. So we
went to work. Sophia loves to
color! When she was younger she would
color anywhere and everywhere (carpet, walls, clothes…the list goes on). I have become a mom who only buys Crayola
washable products. I would recommend
them to any other mom who has a color everywhere type of child. I also love color wonder products. Ok, back to the project. Due to her love of crayons I thought we could
somehow bring in 100 crayons. So when
thinking of a fun way to display them we came of with flowers (another favorite
of Sophia) and making a little garden on a display board.
Here is the finished project. We used sidewalk chalk to make the background
sky and grass. We glued 10 crayons for
each flower and then used a marker for the stem of the flower. I was one proud momma. I think she was very excited too!!
We did this on Saturday and by Sunday morning my sweet
Sophia was sick L I took her to
the Dr. and she had another bad sinus infection (I hate all the pollen). So she missed her 100th day
celebration and her 101st day celebration but you better believe we
brought the project in for the 103rd day!
I am so thankful for my Sophia. I hope she still loves coloring for many more
years!!
Babe...awesome stuff. THat was a great idea to do the 100 crayon thing:)
