On Friday, we made Bunny Wood Blocks. We have been making these adorable wood block craft projects for several years now. I found the idea at a wonderful website maintained by a retired teacher. The picture for the September block is posted on her website and the other ideas (complete with step-by-step directions, color pictures, and patterns) can be ordered on her website. Here is the link to the Kinderteacher website:
My children always amaze me with their creativity. For the April Bunny Block, the bunny in the example was white with white and pink ears. The bunny had whiskers, a pink nose, and little eyes that were drawn on with a permanent marker. My children, though, had other plans for THEIR bunnies!
As usual, my oldest, A, stayed closest to the original pattern but she opted for a grey bunny:
M, my budding artist, always does something slightly wacky with his wood block project. He decided to make his bunny an evil bunny holding a bomb.
My youngest, D, wanted to make his bunny with two colors and he had very clear ideas about exactly how he wanted to bend his ears and the color of his bunny's nose. D loves to do craft projects!
We have made them for many different holidays/seasons of the year including:
Christmas Reindeers with evergreen antlers...
January Snowmen with Fleece Hats...
Thanksgiving Turkeys (we liked them so much, we made them twice!)...
Halloween Jack-O-Lanterns...
September Apple Man Blocks...
And cute little Bees for May...
