Recording both the the "rosey" and "wosey" of home educating our 7 year old FULL time, having teachable moments with our 2 year old SOME time, while holding a baby ALL the time. Is it summer break yet?!!

Do the Robot!

So, on Friday of Spring Break we went over to our friends house to join them in a robot building project using recycled materials. It was a lot of fun once the kids got into it. Lovely liked it after we got started (we, meaning me lol) and had fun designing it. The moms really did a lot of the creating with the kids building and designing, then running off to play, but coming back and adding something new. It was a busy project!

It was fun seeing what the kids picked, or envisioned.

Design coming together - she still had not gotten as excited as she got later.

Now..she's getting into it!

Adding her touches.


She's into it now!

Almost done....just needs a face. She wanted  "googly eyes".

Finished product! Well, the robot could have had more done, but playtime called.

It looks like it wants to hug. A hugging robot!

Aww, hugs! lol
What a fun way to reuse items that could be put in the trash, and a great way to remind ourselves to recycle.  My friend always has the most creative ideas. Thanks S!
