Making stuff with pasta, clay and bottle caps
Now that I drink 2-3 glasses of fresh milk each day, I get to throw away quite a number of milk cartons. And rather than throwing the empty cartons straight to the bin, I kinda started … collecting the caps. Even the orange juices’ ones. Hehe.
And so recently Anya’s been playing with these caps. The great thing about this is … the caps can be: tomatoes, chilli, brocolli, spices or even hats, to name a few. It’s up to your imagination, really …
AND AND, whenever you decide not to play with them again, you can just … throw them away!
Well anyway, today we made ‘our family’ out of some moulding clay and … yes, the CAPS. Daddy got to wear the ‘big hat’ and Anya’s brother wore the green one. Hehe. It was FUN!
She practiced her ‘scissors’ skills too today. Though it may seem sooo easy for us adults, it’s amazing to see the amount of concentration she needed to coordinate her little fingers and cut the clay and stuff.
And of course, in the end, she went to get her stove and cooked some ‘yummy pasta’.
Today’s been great!
