No more muu-muus for CollageMama. It was back to Art Land today. First thing this morning I dyed several dozen socks purple, green, and brown for upcoming stitchery and puppet projects. (You'll just have to wonder about those for now.) Hung all the socks on the clothesline in the art room. Had a great time convincing all my preschool students that the Old Woman Who Lives In a Shoe had stopped by over the holiday break to wash her kids' socks. I love it when a few students realize I'm just messing with them and start playing along, adding to the tall tale.
The first grade kids started a new papier mache project. There's nothing like papier mache for bringing out the collective weirdness in any group. The kids had a heated discussion of whether cannibalism is legal and why California squid tastes best. I figure we can draw Donner Party flip-books next week. After all, Texas is the home of Roadkill Chili.
It's just as well that we are all on New Year's diets.
