It was a slow, cold-ish, rainy-ish morning. The kids were tired from a late night last night, and a few of them are coming down with a little cold. I needed some time to practice my music. So, the children had a little time to kick back and go crazy this morning. This is what goes on when home schooled kids are left largely unsupervised for a few hours:
Joe (who finally rolled out of bed hours after everyone else) is our master paper crafter. He spent the morning making admirals' hats for his little stuffed dogs. If he had enough paper, he could probably make full wardrobes for every member of the family.
The rest of the wild and crazy kids made paper-and-marker replicas of flags from around the world. I forgot what countries these flags are from, but I assure you they are legitimate, actual countries. If you notice any worn-out flags flying over the UN headquarters, give these kids a call; they'll hook you up.
Elena made up her own flags. This one looks like the Republic of Spiderman. I think I'll go live there.We have moved on to more standard school work, but I've caught a few of these hooligans trying to sneak some flag-coloring underneath their spelling books.
