A Wee Enchanted Garden

It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of craft kits for kids.  I've collected quite the stash of them.  There are 2 full shelves in my craft room.  I've been saving a lot of them up to use over summer vacation.  You know, for when we have had enough sun and swimming in the pool, or when I'm not knee-deep in LEGO.

Marisol pulled the Wee Enchanted Garden kit off the shelf a couple of weeks ago and insisted that I do it with her, which means that she did it and my role was to sit there and watch.

Creativity for Kids
