Little Mushroom Gardens





The last full day of camp it was pretty cool in the morning so my sister-in-law, Mary, and I decided to do a little craft project with the girls. I found this idea in a Family Fun magazine (This magazine has fantastic ideas to have fun with little ones)! To be fair the girls were a little young to actually create the little mushroom gardens all on their own so Mary and I did most of the work creating the mushrooms (and a few other creatures) out of clay. Lily and Brenna did have a great time playing with the clay and after our mushrooms were created and baked the girls helped us fill their gardens with sand and rocks. And then they had so much FUN sticking the mushrooms in their gardens, taking them out, rearranging, and doing it over and over again! And since returning home Lily has decided, for some strange reason, that they also make great pool/water toys!
