We have been all about sheep and Bo Peep lately. If you have been following, you know the Sugar Snaps dressed in sheep costumes I made and I made Capri a hat (to go with a store bought dress that I altered). I love doing pulled cotton crafts because it is a great fine motor and sensory activity. We made pulled cotton ghosts of different types this year and last year. We also made pulled cotton snowmen last Winter. The Sugar Snaps are very familiar with taking balls of cotton and pulling them apart to make fluffy cotton for arts and crafts. They have different tolerance levels for having the cotton stick to their fingers once the gluing starts. Capri and Ryder don’t seem to mind while Grayson and Xayden have trouble with the sensory experience of glue and cotton. It is great when they work through that and enjoy seeing their finished work.
