Aunt Steph Brings Cool Things

If you've read my blog for long you know that I have a fantastic Sister-in-law, Stephanie. She's so wonderfully artistic and creative. The kids LOVE her and she's wonderful with them. She thinks of things that they'll enjoy and does the most interesting things with them when she's with them. They just love her creative mind and all the fun that she brings into their lives.
She and her band recently released a new CD that includes a song that she wrote for the kids. I'll have to put a video of the kids singing it on here some time, but here is Steph singing it.

A few weeks ago she brought some stuff over that she thought the kids would enjoy. When they first saw it they called them treasures, but they didn't know what to do with them. BUT, Stephanie had suggested we make them into kaleidoscopes. SO we did!

These were our materials.

Brubbs getting his tube ready.

After he put his flowers in he kept saying, "I see things!"

Addi decided that her "plain" tube was in need of beauty.

 

She said, "This is MUCH better."

Olivia with her materials.

KK was a little excited about making her kaleidoscope.

Mia being SO happy to have her tube finished! Ha!

Isaiah said "Mom. Make mine say I-S-A-I-A-H!" 

Silly Mia with her cheese face!

Olivia getting her inside parts ready for her scope.

Their finished products. They looked pretty cool on the inside too!

Thanks Aunt Stephanie(and Stephen)
