My Creative Child

Saturday Leah asked me if she could make a Teddy Bear for Heidi. I gave her some fabric and no more instruction than to cut out two pieces at the same time for a front and a back. Leah drew a bear, cut it out, sewed it, stuffed it, (i sewed the buttons on) and then tied a little bow around it's waist. She was SO excited that Heidi loved it and immediately started eating it's face off. Not too shabby for a six year old 'eh?

I would be impressed if I did that so I am really impressed that a 6 year old did!
