Also, we dug out the train set that Jellyfish got from Nana & Pa a couple of years ago (minus the carriage - I think it got put in another toy tub), and the Duplo, and they started creating. Here is what they came up with.
They each built their own section of track, and then I had the lucky task of piecing it all together. From there (with a couple of suggestions) they embellished it till they liked how it looked. If you are wondering what that mustard coloured things is in the back ground. That's our floor snake. Think in terms of a really long beanbag, and you have some idea what it looks like.
The train and people got such a work out that the battery in the train is now well and truly flat! That doesn't stop them making the people and animals interact though, and Bertie the bus has also been doing several runs since the train is out of commission! ;)
So there you have it. My creative space has involved finding things for the boys to do rather than my own creative pursuits - but that's OK with me. :) Besides, hubby and the foot on my sewing machine had a little altercation last night (yes, he does to the very odd spot of sewing), so right now I'm not sure it's exactly usable.
Hope you have been having a creative week - or at least spending your time doing something fun with those you love.

neat little planes :)
ReplyDeleteLove those wee planes and those rough days where the toys come in to their own.
ReplyDeleteOh the planes are super cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of fun. I'll bet they are looking forward to the next rainy day now! x
ReplyDeletethose planes are so cute, they look like they're made out of pegs, are they?!
ReplyDeleteMy boys love their train set and Duplo too. They would love those planes as well - what a great friend, sending those. I hope the rain stops so they can play outside though.
ReplyDeleteMany memories of tramping down to that creek... most vivid is B being stung on the forehead by a bee when he peered into a hollow log that was buzzing, funny to think about now but at the time he was pretty sore! hee hee
