This was definitely a spontaneous activity. I didn't have a plan or any materials prepared. I had a vague idea of what a bunny looks like, and that's about it. I started grabbing stuff out of our pantry and craft bins, trying to pull something together before he lost interest altogether. Paper plates, colored paper, googly eyes, glitter glue- check!
And you know what? It worked out. We both had a blast. I sincerely admire those creative ladies who plan, organize, and put so much thought into the activities they do with their kids. I love their blogs, their wonderful craft ideas, and their amazing photos. I usually plan our activities, too. But there is also nothing wrong with the grab-and-go method. As long as I'm spending good quality time with my son and providing him with different experiences and materials to work with, I'm happy.
He really loved the glitter glue. It was easy for him to use, and the colors were fantastic. And it was less messy than regular glitter.
Let's pause for hand sanitizer.
More glitter glue.
When he got one bunny done, he asked to make another. (Success!)
I made the ears and stapled them on where he told me to put them, but he did the rest. I'm so proud of him!
