I really should know better than to make goals. My brain is just not good at consistency these day. However, I do make and effort to come up with some project each day for my son to do. Thank you, Pinterest, for making this so easy.
This Elmo cut and paste project was pinned by FunWithMama.com, which looks like a site I will need to follow more closely!
While D was sleeping, I printed out the Elmo page. He was very excited to find it on the table after nap time.
Since his scissors have packed in storage until we're in the new house, I cut out the pieces for him.
First, he followed the picture to make the face.
"How's this look, Mommy?"
He compared his work to the picture again.
Then used the glue to secure the pieces.
It was his first time using a glue stick.
The second time around, he figure out that the eyes had to be higher.
When we were done, he insisted that Elmo needed legs. Not arms, apparently, but legs. He also spelled out Elmo's name. I'm very proud of his writing.
