One activity, which will be done again, was to cut out different people from magazines. Then I chopped off their heads.
(Trust me, I'm a nice person.)
I gave The Fripits the bodies and heads, which she could match together. She had a lot of fun doing this and seemed to grasp the concept that people need heads. This came as a huge relief to me.
My favorite creation of hers was Abe Lincoln doing yoga.
This project kept my three year old entertained for 7 minutes. Which means I got to have a glass of water and gulp down some vitamins.
How cool is that?

Hey girl! Glad there's a place where I can read you again. I bet you are glad your family is there to spoil the littles ! How can you drink coffee at night? I would need alot of melatonin to get to sleep! :)
Hi Jackie! I love the new blog!! I'm always looking for new ideas to keep Aiden busy. Great idea! Looks like you're doing a wonderful job with your girls.
Neat idea! I have some magazines I need to clip recipes/tips from. I think that's the motivation I need to get it done so I can cut them up. :D
What a great idea, Jackie!!! I bet this would also make for many laughs with a certain 8 year old I know!!!
How creative! You're doing so much with your kids, and they're going to grow up great because of it.
Abe doing Yoga! How hilarious!
How did you come up with the name Fripits for you know who? Email during one of your 7 minute breaks and fill me in. Love Ya!
