Earth Day

This spring has been a complete whirlwind for us... all of the balance we had found in the fall has given way to complete chaos! :) Good chaos, but always feeling a step behind has made a lot of my "strewing" ideas fall to the wayside, and a lot of our activities are unplanned, fly by the seat of our pants activities! One day we attempted clay pendants for mother's day necklaces, but the unplanned and untried got the better of us and they fell apart -- :( , but this is one that did work...Tara working on her "Terra" and being her usual goofy self.
After a bit of chatting about the purpose of Earth Day and what we can do everyday to help our precious planet, we made these Earth (or Terra -commence giggles from 4 girls) zipper pulls.
The girls went at it, and after they had figured out the technique, it was all I could do to keep up! Pretty soon I am going to put the girls in charge of these activities, and I am going to be the one at the table!!

Final result
