How does one teach fashion sense to a 6yo?
This is her own creation. Entirely.
Must work with color wheel...
Ladybug rainboots and sunglasses, $30. Mint sweater and turquoise/green shorts $20. Ratty bed-head unbrushed hair, free. Embarrasing her later with this photo? Priceless.

ok, so the picture sucks. Fun with Fimo
we made Dalmatian and Schnauzer pendants using fimo, rubber stamps, and acrylic paints. Ooh, I forgot to glaze--will do.
I am doing nanoedmo this month (March) although not sure if the kids will. I think N wants to.
Today we learned how the precipitation cycle works, that most adults aren't as smart as 5th graders, that although it's commonly thought that Fiction books don't use the dewey decimal system, they actually (supposedly) do, and our library is so far removed from that system for fiction that books don't carry that identification, instead they bear bar codes. We also learned that conditioning fimo takes a while, different colors take different amounts, that eating too many chocolate chip cookies can make you feel sick, that not everyone likes to dip into milk said cookies, that chess is a complicated game, and that 12 hours straight of discussion about Nintendo and the Legend of Zelda makes mom turn green.
Good day, huh?
