I was so excited when I saw this linky party and knew I just had to join! (Not like I spend enough time on Pinterest anyway, right?) Ch...
Ich bin raus aus der Kindergeburtstagsnummer von Januar bis August. Dennoch habe ich seltsamerweise genau in dieser Zeit die meisten Ideen. Meine Kinder auch. Darf es dann planungsmäßig endlich zur Sache gehen, so ab Mitte Juli, sind wir irgendwie jedes Mal ziemlich ratlos… Vor einer ganzen Weile entdeckte ich bei Instagram einen Pippi-Langstrumpf-Geburtstag. Und anstatt das Bild und die Idee bloß zu speichern oder zu pinnen und sie in der zweiten Jahreshälfte doch nicht wiederzufinden, habe ich Cathi vom hübschen Instagramaccount @Henryliebtlotta eingeladen, ihre Pippi-Party hier noch einmal zu schmeißen. Und – jippiejei – Cathi hat sofort Ja gesagt. Dreijährige sind in Sachen Geburtstag herrlich leicht zufrieden zu stellen, daher hatte Cathi neben der hübschen Deko einfach Unmengen an bunten Luftballons besorgt, um aus dem Wohnzimmer eine Villa Kunterbunt zu zaubern. Es gab ein paar Tröten und Hütchen und natürlich Unmengen

3rd graders finished their Egyptian sarcophagus', Egyptian self evaluation, and then made these toilet paper Egyptian cuffs! I told the students DO NOT CUT the toilet paper roll UNTIL it's completely dry. The reason being it will loose it's shape and just flatten out on it's own. So simply paint with metallic gold, decorate and glue with sequins, and let dry. Then give it a spiral cut for the cobra cuff or just s single cut for the normal cuff. Students finished working on teamwork skills and their tableteam, patterned, life-size sarcophagus', complete with heiroglyphic cartouches, gold metallic paint detail, and then cut them out. We drew straws for who got to take the treasure home!
