Spring is definitely here! We have had full-on sunshine for several days in a row now, and I feel like I'm finally awake after that icy winter. It hasn't even drizzled this week, which seems like a small miracle to me. I hope it lasts!
This week has been incredibly busy, but Kitty Bill and I have carved out a bit of time to make several moving pictures together. We adore making these pictures and telling stories to each other. Kitty Bill, in particular, is drawn to anything that needs a bit of engineering to pull off, so these pictures are perfect for him. And he's full of story ideas just bursting to get out.
Here are a few that we made this week.

The Raindrop Gnome Goes Fishing in the Dead of Night
He's really starting to develop a bit of control with the beeswax block crayons. It's a good way to get those sharp edges worn down before we start grade one stories this fall.
I don't know what it is about moving pictures that calls to me every spring, but it seems to have become a regular springtime activity around here. You could almost set your clock to it. ;)
These are fabulous Sara! I see why Kitty Bill loves them. Happy Spring!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Great titles for stories, and lovely pictures. We made a couple of these when we did a fables block, but I think we might do some more now......thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rachel! Happy Spring to you, too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Cathy. The titles he came up with cracked me up... he's a funny boy sometimes.
