I took a few packages of googley eyes camping with us. Some were girl eyes with eyelashes. I made a few examples of nature creatures and then told each of the kids to go find THEIR nature creature.
It was fun watching them choose just the right rock, flower or leaf. AND then oh how they came alive with the googley eyes. I have one sitting in my garden right now. I found the idea in Family Fun and we will definitely do it again!
Stay tuned for the other easy camp craft. Hopefully tomorrow I can get all caught up!
What a cute idea! Low budget and tons of fun...right up my ally! Looks like the girls had a blast :)
ReplyDeleteHey, do you remember teaching a Sister Flake in the MTC? She's a new friend that recently moved into our ward and I just found out today that she served a mission in Quito from 94-96. She remembers you! She doubted you would remember her because she was one of many, but said to tell you hi just in case.
ReplyDeleteAnd I like the googly eye nature craft idea!
My kids would love that!
ReplyDeleteI have been trying to find what camera and attachments you use to get such beautiful photos. Can you share how you do it? Please? Thanks. -Rebecca
