Sometimes when I lay out crafting supplies I am so happily surprised to see where they take us…
Dino Boy started by drawing a spiral…
‘like a snail’
Then the colourful crepe paper seemed to say to him… we are flowers
While the glue became pollen…
I watch his creativity unfold in front of me and it is incredible…
…full of small details and intention {and always lots of glue}
With flowers and pollen what else do you need, he seemed to think…
‘bees! can we make bees?’
‘the bees are getting the pollen…’
I stepped back some more and saw him create a whole little world…
…complete with a whimsical door, gnome and dragon!
And while I sat sipping my cup of tea he weaved a story…
One day a gnome was walking in the garden
The worker bees were busy working…
…collecting nectar
Then the weather changed
A dragon chased the Queen Bee
It caught her and hurt her wing
The Queen Bee fell… Bzzz bzzzz
Then the dragon fell… landing on prickly bushes...
Lots of dramatic flair *smile*
And a happy little sister watching, listening…
and decorated?!
Happy days, Kelly
