- Schools and daycares got closed for a week
- Mumma stayed at home (WFH) since Aryan needed someone around
- After 2 days Aryan got pissed of in house arrest & got bored of his toys
- And so Mumma decided to get crafty
- And scratched her head and digged all the scrap
- Thankfully we had left over birthday supplies at home
First one was this clown , the ball an ignored toy for 3 years , the eyes and nose were choclate wrappers, the mouth was cut from a torn face mask ..and cap ..you know that !
Aryan went in total crafty mood after the clown. For the first time ever he loved an organized activity , thanks to school or his boredom !! So he wanted to do more !
Then came the Octopus , mumma found it over the web long long back and the idea was stored in the hard disc on mumma's head. All we needed was a metal hanger some crepe paper strips and an old gift wrapper , used the reverse for eyes and mouth :P
As we were done with the octopus , he wanted to make all the animals he knew , so we made the fish next !! Looks horrible , but you know Mumma cannot be all that crafty in a single day and ofcourse mumma collected supplies for 2 crafts only and this was on the spot !!
After fish he wanted lion , doggie , girraffe and what not ..pacified him somehow.
The next day we made a necklace and he wanted to wear it to school like M (a girl in his class) :-P
Hey! Brilliant! N the fish looks gr8 too :) So, did he wear the necklace to school ;)
