More clay figures...


Well, my little clay modellers have been busy again. Both Megan AND little sister Gwen!
Gwen got a brand new clay book for her birthday present from Grandma. She's just turned 8! It was Christie Friesens Jungle book.
I love all her books because the projects have lots of good photos and she writes in a very amusing way that appeals to me! The books are great for kids too. My kids are usually in to much of a hurry to actually read what it says + that they don't read as well in English yet as they do in Swedish (the pro's and con's of being bilingual...). But the photos are so easy to follow that they have no problem creating the projects without having to read a single word!
So the 3 of us sat down one Saturday afternoon and got cracking. Gwen made the cutest little frog before she decided she'd had enough and went off to bounce up and down on the trampoline outside. Hasn't the frog got a lovely little expression on it's face?
Megan and I sat creating for nearly 4 hours!!!
Megan made a JUNGLE FRAME. She never ceases to amaze me at how good she has got at making things out of clay and she seemes to have a thing about making frames at the moment. I think her frame turned out brilliant and equally as good as mine... if not better!!!
And guess what Megan want's for her 10th birthday that is coming up in a few weeks time??? Well, the other clay book called "Under the sea" of course!! Poor Grandma gets reminded every time Megan see's her at the moment. :O)
