Kids' Workshop got off to a fantastic start!  Lou Lou and Tegan were thrilled to open their surprises - the place card their parents made for them during the Welcome Party.  Tegan showed Lou Lou how to set the table and we enjoyed a lovely lunch together.  After lunch, the girls made made messages for their families.  The messages were quite involved and we noticed that they were working off each other's collage ideas.   

There's been interest in exploring the sewing machines this year.  We began with basic stitching in a straight line.  Lou Lou and Tegan explored their sewing with the digital microscope.  Tegan started to sew pieces together and came up with the idea of making a blanket for Saoirse.  Lou Lou thought she would make one for Ella the fox.  The girls are also excited about making pillows for their lovies.  We will be working on this in the coming weeks.  We ended the day outside where each girl accomplished something new.  Tegan got up on the swing by herself and Lou Lou was able to balance along the sandbox border by herself.  We can't wait to see what happens the rest of the year!
