After we finished it we signed the sides and let the boys choose which way up to hang the picture - taking after their mama wanting to be different perhaps??
It was so fun to spring an unexpected art activity on them. Afterwards Flip suggested some 'octopus' so we delayed dinner for 10minutes and played together outside.
It made a slightly crazy, 'everyone in different directions' day so special for all of us.
I do love doing special things with my boys.
Cost - Black Canvas $13.99 and crayons cheapie ones box of 64 $4.49 all from The Warehouse. Crayons attached with a hot glue gun but my friend Cat did hers with double-sided tape.
This year I am making more of a conscious effort to have quality moments with my boys. B.M.W.B (becoming the mama I want to be) is my way of recording and hopefully inspiring other mama’s too. Please inspire me with the little moments you are snatching with your little people OR with ideas I could do with mine. If you have blogged about it please leave a comment so we can all visit and encourage each other.
Simple. Achievable. Intentional: becoming the mama I want to be.
That's awesome! I love the black canvas idea : )
