They got out the fabric checker board and set it up to play...
On Sunday morning GD created her very own art retreat under the redwood trees!
GS got in some great quality time with his beloved grand father.
GD drew with waxy pastels.
They both played around in the back yard enjoying the warm weather.
I give them each a "Goodie Bag" filled with things to make and do from what I find at thrift stores
and garage sales. Here GS is cutting out a mask pattern he'll then transfer to a red paper plate
and cut out a mask for himself.
In the morning we sat at the out side patio table for breakfast. And as we were eating our cereal and fruit my grand daughter turns to me and asks: "Grandma, do you believe in God?"
And the conversation went on from there...so interesting to watch a 7 yr old wrap their mind around that one. ;-)
How wonderful that your GD feels like she can talk to you about things that matter. I bet that was an interesting conversation.
ReplyDeleteYour GK look like they are having such a good time with you, I feel quite envious of those Goodie bags...
