Thanks to one of my dearest friends for starting this craft at one of our MOPS meetings. She took a tin cookie sheet and painted the inside flat bottom of the pan with chalkboard paint. Then I took some acrylic paint and wrote: Today is... I left a space and then had my three girls make flowers on it with their fingers. It turned out really cute.
Not only is it a pretty decoration hanging in my kitchen, but the girls are excited to go downstairs every morning to see what kind of day it is going to be. Today, for example, was National Spaghetti Day. I bet you can't guess what we had for dinner?
It makes me happy to see the girls having fun with just the little things in life.
I love this idea!! What a great way to "teach" the kids about joy too!

ReplyDeleteThis will be fun for the whole family! I absolutely adore the thumbprint flowers. Let me know when it's chocolate day, I'll be by to visit!
