Wishful thinking!!

Have you made any Cake Pops yet??

Spring is here.. go ahead and make some cake pops to celebrate the season.. Make them bright and make them colorful..

Mosaic Art..

These were some Mosiac Art kits that Miss A brought over and kids had a fun time putting these together.. 

N's Rainbow:

S's Butterfly:

R's Froggie:

..to go along with his froggie collection... He loves frogs!!.. He wants a real pet frog... (No-No)

Spring is here.. Flower Power!!

N, R and S have started working with an Arts and Crafts teacher (Miss A) on a weekly basis. They are thoroughly enjoying every bit of it and their teacher is wonderful! She has some kind of patience, I must admit!!

In anticipation of spring, the kids decorated some pretty colored pots with glitter and stickers. Then they potted some seasonal spring flowers and attached a little ribbon to finish their creativity. It kept them busy for about an hour. 

These turned out super cute!! Thanks Miss A!!
