Recently, we did some major renevating in our front yard. I thought our Monday project would be a great way to get the kids involved and also a neat way to leave a piece of their sweetness in the yard.
This project ended up spanning two different Mondays (and one Sunday trip to buy flowers).
First, I let the boys paint the pots. We have found, over the course of our Monday projects, that we really do our best work in our pajamas!
I’ve also learned during these projects, that the more freedom they have to create on their own, the more excited they are about the finished product. Sometimes, it is hard to let go, let them make a mess, and see the project turn into a glob of paint…but the look of pride on these sweet faces is well worth it. And in the end, I LOVED the finished product, too!
i love this! they look like they are having a blast! you are such a great mommy! i love you!
