Playing with our Creative Side!

Happy Valentine's Day from us! Above you'll see pictures of the art project Will and I did for Valentine's. Will doesn't care much for messes, so I wasn't sure how this was going to go. I was pleasantly surprised how well Will cooperated putting his thumb in the ink. Each time he pressed him thumb onto the stamp pad he'd say, "A mess". It was a fun project!

Last Saturday while Daddy was gone to class in Brookings, we got the playdough out. We've had to take baby steps in working with playdough. At first he would not even touch it or have anything to do with it. A few weeks ago at Family Foundations Will took an interest in the playdough, but only if he could use tools to play with it. We hit the jackpot last weekend when Will not only played with playdough for a half hour, but poked it, squished it, pounded it and actually touched it with his hands! Doesn't he look like such a big boy sitting at the table in a chair?
