An EGGS -eptional Day

What is more fun this time of year than decorating Easter eggs. And I enjoy it all the more when I get to do it with my grandkids.

Yesterday, I helped my grand daughters dye eggs. I love spending time with them. The wonder in a child's eyes when they create something is so satisfying.

Alexis is concentrating so hard. I love doing things with her. She is so eager to spend time with me that we have a really good time together.

Lttle Zooey was priceless as she was discovering the Easter eggs. But at the end of the day, she did what any 8 month old little girl would do...

She tried to eat it!

C is for Catastrophe

We are at C for the A-Z Challenge. There are lots of great topics, but the best one for me today is Catastrophe. We all have done those cutsie projects with toddlers. I am no exception.

I found this great Easter bunny project to do with my 3 1/2 year old grand daughter. Many thanks to It's Always a Party at the parkers for the wonderful idea. But sadly, our execution was lacking.


We decided to make just bunnies and not use cupcakes...wrong! There is no support. If we had just made the faces it might have worked. We were so diligent in putting the bunnies together.
But catastrophe happened when we got to the ears. A 3 1/2 year old wants to put it together. She doesn't care as long as it looks like a bunny. And she did a really go job till they started to fall over. "Mawka, the bunnies are dead!"

We were able to complete a dozen of the bunny creations. Do they look perfect? Maybe not. But when you get to be a part of making a memory with your grand daughter, it doesn't get any more perfect than that!
