EthaM

     You think that once you get out of school you are finished with projects.  Then you go on to teach school.   More of them.  Preschool...even worse.  Now that I have two kids IN school it seems as though the projects never stop.  When they have homework and projects that means that I have them as well...for a little while longer anyway...then they will be on their own!!!
     This one involved creating a pig out of various household things.  I used a shoebox for the body.  Paper towel rolls for the legs.  A head of newspaper.  Snout and eyes from egg cartons.  Oh and I twisted a mighty fine tail from a skewer.  I then covered the entire thing piece by piece with soft pink material (Emily's old shirt).  Recycling is quite alive at my house.  He needed a name tag.  I fashioned one from twine and styrofoam.  It was supposed to have Ethan's name...but it's a pig...and I am silly.  Tomorrow Ethan will bring his new pal, ETHAM, to the farm set that the kindergarten class has created for a play.  Etham...get it?  Oink.
