Lance loves to draw, they are mostly Star Wars characters but he can spend the whole day creating things using various materials and turn it into something really nice. He has been asking me for materials and has been glued to the TV waiting for Mister Maker.
Our house is always a huge mess especially around the kids' corner where their activity table is situated. If Lance likes to draw, Lei likes to doodle and waste paper. She wraps her toys and give them to as gifts. She would draw and write letters, hand them to me and say, "This is for you Mom I love you so much." So cute I know except for the mess but I've come to deal with it and realized that kids are synonymous to mess. When they get older, that would be a different story.
Lately, Lance would express his desire to make something out of different materials just like what he sees on TV. I haven't started recycling those small plastic bottles of yogurt drinks which they can use to create something just like in school. I really have to collect materials which they can use and not rely on buying everything. During my recent trip to Dollarama I picked up this box of pom pom animal making kit which he excitedly opened the moment we got home. He really is one creative boy, I better start gathering materials he requested so he'll have lots do when school ends. My goal is to keep them busy all summer long!
