For a project for school in Ben's 1st grade class, he did research on octopuses and made a poster. I have to say that even though I dread anything involving being "crafty", we had so much fun working on it together! Growing up in London, things were pretty much just writing and maybe painting or drawing a picture. But I did have a recollection of using a certain kind of tissue paper where if you layer and glue pieces of them together, the colors bleed into each other. That was our ocean and then we had fun finding pictures of octupuses online and writing the information underneath each picture. I loved watching Ben get so creative and passionate about something. He used pipecleaners for seaweed and colored everything with his own patterns. He was so proud of himself and so we had to take a picture!
