Construction Zone

After my girls saw some pictures of construction paper costumes created by my cousins’ daughters, they have been begging me to let them follow suit.  Who am I to stand in the way of the creative process?  So I got them supplies and left them to their own devices.  In the last two days, armed with a pad of colored construction paper, scissors and oodles of scotch tape, they have…

…turned a horse into a unicorn:

Made functional masks (in addition to fairy wings, which were taped to their backs):

Decorated their window:

And recreated the characters from Eric Carle’s “Brown Bear, Brown Bear” (you’ll see a red bird, green frog, brown-ish bear, purple cat, black dog, gold fish, blue horse, yellow duck, and white sheep):

I can’t wait to see what they come up with next!
