Craft area

Once again, Pascale clambered over the sofa and other obstacles to reach the craft area. This time Priscilla was drawing something and decided to let Pascale do craft there. She was given paper and a few stickers, and managed to stick them onto her hands but couldn't put a sticker onto the paper (stuck onto her fingers). Pascale was more interested in unwrapping one of Abi's wrappings to find a rock and feather, and also a cardboard star. So Priscilla showed Pascale how to use the glue stick to attach the feather onto another cardboard star. Then she opened the box of craft stuff and Pascale chose mini pom poms to stick onto her star. Soon after she chose some coloured sticks and tried to put them through the centre of the foam flowers as she had seen Priscilla do so last week. Got a bit frustrated cos her hand eye coordination was not good, plus it was nap time.

Later during cooking time for dinner, Pascale was playing in her kitchen with the oven gloves. Priscilla turned around a short time later and saw the child had gone elsewhere. No sound not even crying or falling. As soon as she could leave the stove Priscilla searched for Pascale and found her ... in the craft area! She was investigating glitter glue pens, trying vainly to take the lids off. She had taken the lids off the mini glitter gel pens but wasn't interested in drawing with them.
