springtime magic
after making so many wooden easter and springtime friends, N really wanted to make more out of “clay.” since we don’t have a kiln over here, i busted out the model magic, and she got down to business.
N made lots of eggs and a caterpillar. i also helped her make the 2 spring chickies you see above, and a bunny.
it took two days for the model magic eggs to dry (they’re dense, even though they’re lightweight.) when they were ready, we painted them with acrylics. we first had a lesson in what-happens-to-each-color-of-the-rainbow-when-mixed-with-white-paint? PASTELS FOR SPRING!
we had a little painting party…
we probably got more paint on our hands than the figures and eggs, but it was all good clean fun.
we loved decorating our home with our new little spring sculptures…
