Butterflies and flowers


Today Cassandra and I did a fun little art project. We painted little wooden butterflies that are magnets. At first Cassandra was preoccupied reading a magazine article. So I decided to start my butterfly soon enough she was interested and started painting, she had one big butterfly and two smaller ones. As we went along painting them they started to look like tye dyeing it was pretty cool. After we were done with that project we put it to the side to dry. Next we created a poster that had her name on it. I found letter foam stickers which she really liked. We spelled her name out and added in lots of hearts and flowers. We also found cut outs of boys and girls and placed them on our poster. After that project was competed i surprised Cassandra with a glitter pen, she was able to add glitter to anything she wanted we put glitter on the butterflies and on the poster and a little bit on our selves. We were very satisfied with our work so it was time to clean up the mess we made. We washed all the paint brushes and put away all the stickers we didn't use. Once we got back to Cassandras house she was very excited to show her family what she had made. It was a lot of fun I plan on doing more arts and crafts with her. Hopefully when the weather gets nicer we can do some tye dying outside :) !!!!!
