Educating Risa

Gareth is currently enrolled in a “playschool” program one morning a week. The theme of this class—called “A World Down Under”—is oceans. Each day they play games, do a craft, read books, sing songs, etc. related to this theme. Gareth brought home his first craft project from the class recently and he is soooo proud of it. The jellyfish is now hanging from a hook in his room where an old “baby” mobile of jungle animals once hung. Here’s some pics:

The craft is made of a paper plate, cut in half and glued so as to have an open section on the bottom. It is covered in coloured tissue paper, and the tentacles are made of construction paper strips, glued to the inside. Add a string, googly eyes and a mouth, and you’re done!
