Carlos has reached the age where he can actually focus his attention long enough to do some fun little art projects. A recent favorite has been rock painting (he paints them with poster paints, I coat them with clear spray paint and glue some felt to the bottom so they can be used as paperweights). Today I showed him this fun little project that I remember from my childhood.
I guess everybody probably made these as kids, yes? Well, in case not, it's two sheets of waxed paper with leaves and crayon shavings in between them - you go over it with a warm iron to melt the crayon wax and seal the sheets together. I thought they turned out pretty cute, and Carlos had fun.
