Merry X'mas, Papa!

After our sand and gravel art, I thought it would be great to make a picture for Papa. I painted the shape of a Christmas sock using white glue and let Sophie sprinkle coloured sand over it. Then she pasted some cotton wool on top and added glitter glueon the sock. At first I thought it would look nice to just squeeze the glitter glue around to form random designs, but Sophie was so used to "rubbing over" the glitter glue that she smeared it all over before I could stop her.

Later in the afternoon, I let Sophie create some letter prints with her alphabet stamps. Then I picked those that we needed for the words and cut them out.
