She's going 3-D!!

August 15, 2008
I didn't show her how to make the little stands on these drawings or help her cut them out. Honestly, I still haven't taught her anything. I just want her creative mind and heart to flow freely without putting restrictions on her. So far, the results have been amazing. I love to ask her about each of her drawings--each little mark is a symbol of something. I'm sure at some point she will be asking me how to do this or that. At that point, I will direct her a bit. Until then, I'm just loving see what her hands can make. She seriously spends at least half of the day drawing and creating things. I keep a lot of her drawings and post a few here and there. Anyway, here is her 3-D farm. Of course, she doesn't know that it is, though. Walt was so excited. There is a cow, a pig and the orange animal is a horse. There is a barn, the hay, and the little cat in the loft. She said that the blue next to the cat is it's water. I'm not sure where she's seen all of this. We drive by barns when we are on our way to my parents house, maybe that's where she got the idea? Love it though!
