Monkey Day

Laura made the cutest monkey cupcakes a few weeks ago, and I filed it away for future reference. Last week was a short week at school, and MC's teacher wanted to have some fun. I jumped on it and offered to help with a monkey day. I made the monkey cupcakes (thanks Laura) for snacks. I taught the kids how to draw a cute monkey, and we used brown wicky sticks for tails. The teacher read them a Curious George book after all the artsy fun.

I love working in MC's school. I am able to spend time with her and do art projects with her class. As a fundraiser for the Fall Festival, I created a fall platter to be raffled. Each child and teacher added a thumbprint that I turned into pumpkins, turkeys, and scarecrows.
