On wednesdays i try to think of something to entertain Emily without allot of walking or burning energy as she has dancing at 4pm so today we got out the craft box and started making some paper chains ready for Christmas. Although it took ages to make it long enough for what we wanted Emily stuck with it with a little bit of help from me and she was really proud when i put them on the ceiling
Then i had a look online to see if there was anything else we could make out of paper and hang from the ceiling and found 3D snowflakes. Unfortunatly when it was folded it was too hard for Emily to cut with her safety scissors so i had to do all the cutting and Emily concentrated on decorating them, we made 4 in total to hang between our garlands.
When she got bored of that we made salt dough shapes so we can later turn them into tree decorations, the take hours to bake off in the oven so she had to wait till after dancing to paint them and as we made tonnes of dough she is only half way through painting them but im going to put the rest away for another day when she is fed up.
All in all she has had a fantastic day!
