Nocklers
A few old toilet paper tubes, some markers, string, and a hole punch. Yes, for me at 30 this is a tired old craft, but for my children it is a novelty and a wonder. It's hard to keep in mind that the world is brand new for them, and so often I don't turn to the trustiest fallbacks.
They were absolutely delighted with this craft. As a matter of fact, James wore his for most of the day, even using them to look at the ducks later in the afternoon when we went to the park.
And as always, May was happy just to be doing the same thing as her big brother.
It's amazing to me that it only takes the slightest effort on my part to turn my children's world into a fairy tale. What an amazing gift, parenthood.
