Bonhomme de neige

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather. Saturday morning we built a fantastic snowman thanks to a kit that we recieved as a family Christmas gift last year. Yesterday L went to school and discovered the french word for snowman and now we talk about la bonhomme de neige and look for them everywhere.

L’s favourite tv show is CBC’s Artzooka. They have a contest running right now, the grand prize is craft supplies. L would like to win and I would like it if he did too, the paper drawer is always on the verge of running out. For the contest L had to make a muscial instrument and upload his picture to cbc kids. Of course L’s drum is decorated with a picture of a dragon breathing fire on some unsuspecting knight. Yesterday L wrote and illustrated a book entitled “Dragon”. The narration went like this; “Dragon is breathing fire”, “Dragon is attacking” (here he made a lift the flap, the top is a knight and underneath is a pile of ashes), “Dragon is attacking the castle”. By now I suppose that you are catching on to the theme in our house.
