A backyard scavenger hunt

 

Dino Boy had a big idea recently…
He wanted to go on a….Scavenger Hunt!! 
{I’m not even sure where he got the idea} 
We took a colour approach first up…
…which was perfect for the end of Spring

 

 

It was lovely watching him flitting around the backyard…
exclaiming about different colours and what treasure he had found!
  

 

Even Wookie got in on the action…
excited by the searching and seeking behind things, under things and all around

 

 

And what lovely things they were!
Happily added to our nature table… or Dino Boy’s treasure collection *smile*


Happy days,

Kangaroos

I’m Bounda, I’m Bounda, I’m Bounda the Kangaroo
I have two floppy ears and two paws, how do you do?
Two paws, how do you do?
I have a long tail and two flat feet
And I like to play where the grass is juicy and sweet
I’m Bounda, I’m Bounda, I’m Bounda the Kangaroo

Kangaroos are beautiful strong creatures…
that really do bound along *smile*
These kangaroos didn’t quite bound out from the wood though *smile*
I used my usual method… of cutting them using the scroll saw
Here is the pattern I came up with for them… in case you would like to try
The main work in making them was sanding, lots and lots of sanding…
mostly while at playgroup
{sometimes the kangaroos did bound off for a little play though!}

Happy crafting, Kelly
