This was a funny conversation I had with Zach this afternoon. Let me first preface. Zach has gotten into a habit of watching a show after he wakes up. He is pretty demanding and cranky and it is the only thing that wakes him up, but I have been trying to break him of that with other options. So this is how it went...
me: "Zach, let's do an art project!"
zach: "Let's watch a 'little' show!" ( "little" was said with his hands close together letting me know just a little one mom)
me: "Art is way more fun than tv"
zach: "Let's have the TV be an art project!"
This kid is to clever for me!
Art won! When I told him we could dip balls in paint and roll them around in a shoe box he was sold. This is a fun project I remember doing as a kid with marbles. No marbles at our house but plastic golf balls worked great!

i'm so gonna use that art project! ...and watching tv is the first thing wendy wants to do when she wakes up too. i try to get creative but she usually only gets her way when ryan gets up with her - so he can fall asleep on the couch :)
There are so many art projects to do... it's hard to choose! But, it's true, they're much better than the TV! I hope Chris didn't mind you using his golf balls! :)
