another thing i like to do
another thing i like to do is make an "art box" for the little ones. I purchase a fairly large plastic container with lid and in it i put such things purchased at cheap shops such as glue and arts and craft supplies, crayons, paper, plastic safety scissors, old magazines etc. Each week i buy something new to ad to the box, like coloured paddle pop sticks, glue, paper. You can also add things from home for art like large milk bottle tops for glueing on paper, bits of material cut into small pieces for glueing. Then when the little ones are at there im bored stage of the day and you need a break you can bring out the box for them to have heaps of fun, and because you ad something new into it each week they never loose interest. Oh and dont forget to recycle things such as cereal boxex and egg cartons etc for them to make their master pieces with.
