Octopus

Age: 4 years, 3 months, 1 week, 6 days old

Mommy found a great website which teaches kids arts and crafts. How lucky I am, got the chance to do arts very frequently nowadays. And I really love doing it. We did Octopus on last Saturday using toilet paper rolls. Mommy let me do it all by myself except the cutting part.

First color I chose was red.

Paint paint paint, I like painting and red.

First one is done, let it dry then.

Second one I chose green. Daddy always taught me we have to save our planet, always go green. So I like green too. :)


Second one finished painting. While mommy was drying the painted toilet paper rolls (using hair dryer), I was busy painting my nails. =p

After that, mommy cut the the toilet paper rolls into strips to make legs. I was so curious and kept asking "where are the legs?". Then mommy asked me to use the marker pen and roll the strips to curl them up.

fter that, mommy painted my index finger white and stamp my finger on the octopus to make eyes. Maybe too watery, not as white as expected.

Painted my finger black this time to make the black eyes.

Last step is to paste the tiny-punched-color-paper onto the octopus. I didn't quite like this step as the tiny-punched-color-paper kept sticking on my hand instead of the octopus. :( A bit impatient, I refused to finish all the tiny-punched-color-paper. Mommy had to help stick them all herself. =p

Yippe! My octopus are done! =D


I loved them so much.
