Leaf Bean Mossaics

The girls and I had fun with a little craft the other day.

Very simple, 

but they had tons of fun doing it.

We traced a leaf template on to a cereal box.

Laid out the beans and glue and went at it.

 I like crafts that I can give basic instructions

then let their creativity kick in.

 I'm trying to make more of an effort to make time for fun crafts.

With all the other curriculum to get through,

it's easy to put these messy activities on the back burner.

 My goal is to try and do at least one a week.

Now you can hold me accountable.

The girls had fun.

And I think they're kinda purty.

In a beanish way.

Hope you get in touch with your creative side today!
