Could that grip be any more perfect?! :) |
She really enjoys using them and just scribbles away on many a sheet of Dad's computer paper. Grandma even showed her where it is in his office so she can just help herself! She prefers Mom or Grandma (or Great Aunt Janet!) to sit with her and be her "crayon holder" so she can see all the colors and choose accordingly. I have since purchased a little Peppa Pig tin to hold them which she likes almost as much as the crayons.
The crayons/Peppa tin saved us on our flight to Florida in February. Miss V just took the crayons in and out 852 times which ate up a lot of the flight! We of course had to bring them with to Aunt Janet's house once we got there. She is a fellow teacher so it only seemed fitting!
V got a coloring book and another pack of crayons in her Easter basket but I think she still prefers blank paper. Or, the coloring book has cats on every page so maybe she takes after me in not particularly liking cats ;)
Finally, Miss V absolutely loves the crayons in my classroom at preschool. She gets to visit the 4-year-old room occasionally if I'm running late and her friends are napping. She makes a beeline for the crayon boxes and will just grab handfuls if I'm not careful! The 4s think it is funny and they all just keep bringing her crayons! I think it makes her feel like a big kid!
We have attempted painting too and there we have an unopened water color set ready for action so stay tuned!
For the amount of times she asks for "cat" on Skype, I think that it's wishful thinking on your part that she won't be an animal lover 😉
