My Little Man decided on a snake with green eyes and red felt tongue. He has a cryptic diamond pattern on his back (made with fabric markers) and a jingle bell rattler on his tail.
Big Sis did all her own sewing, adding felt ears, a pink tongue and a cotton ball tuft of wool on the head. She braided yarn to tie around the lamb's neck and added jingle bells to make it more fun. She could be the next Sherri Lewis!
And since this is the 21st century, animals these days are very accepting of each other. They generally don't pay any mind to which species you are, so Slither and Blue Eyes played happily together for the rest of the day. Now what to do with the rest of that package of socks...
That is such a cute idea. I love it! Your kids are just adorable. Those smiles!
ReplyDeleteYour son cracks me up. My son is also VERY particular about his socks. He has a very specific comfort level with them, not too high, not too low (especially), not too colorful, not too plain. Otherwise, he doesn't care at all what he wears. It's all about the socks.
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I recently bought some cute leopard print knee highs that had the same problem as your sons socks. I am thinking leopard sock cat. Although I will forgo the puppet and make the sock monkey variety sock toy.
ReplyDeleteLooks like great fun!
ReplyDeleteCute Ideal. What animal can you make from toe socks? That's all my daughters like to wear. Plus they have some wild colored ones. It was really nice to see kids having fun with out play stations, I phones, or lap tops.
ReplyDeleteSo much more sophisticated than our Sock-O! Perhaps some rainy day we will have to do an upgrade too!
