Christmas Collage
My girls like nothing more than to print out, cut out, stick on, (make a GIANT mess). They have boxes of old magazines and know their way around Google images, and are always making collages of some kind. So I decided we would make a Christmas one. They picked out the pics while Sienna and I constructed the collage tree, and then they set to work decorating it.
The Word Party
Loving words clutch crimson roses,
Rude words sniff and pick their noses,
Sly words come dressed as foxes,
Short words stand on cardboard boxes,
Common words tell jokes and gabble,
Complicated words play Scrabble,
Swear words stamp around and shout,
Hard words stare eachother out,
Foreign words look lost and shrug,
Careless words trip on the rug,
Long words slouch with stooping shoulders,
Code words carry secret folders,
Silly words flick rubber bands,
Hyphenated words hold hands,
Strong words show off, bending metal,
Sweet words call each other 'petal',
Small words yawn and suck their thumbs,
Till at last the morning comes,
Kind words give out farewell posies....
Snap! The dictionary closes.
