Musical Recycle

Saumya likes to make things. Things like putting a big oval bead at the end of a string which becomes her fishing line and sitting on her blocks wagon that is her boat and then she goes fishing.
This is when she got a big bite and had to pull hard and fast! All those wooden beads on the carpet are the fish in the lake.

She usually steers away from the intended use of things and tries to make something else. For past few days she has been collecting her yogurt containers
Today she filled them up with beadsThese are push pin kind of beads that are a part of a puzzle where you push in the beads while matching it with the color to make it into a pattern. She has spent a lot of time with this puzzle and is now trying to find other uses for it. So she filled her yogurt containers with these beads to make Maracas! While trying to shake those maracas and enjoy the music but seeing those falling out one by one for lack of a cover, she got the idea of covering them with "the shiny thing in which Mamma sometimes pack her bread for office" a.k.a Aluminium foil. So there we have our own handmade maracas! Seems it's going to be a musical weekend
at our house!
Sunday we will be heading off the Welcome Back Fall Festival at her school!
What are you planning to do this weekend besides getting soaked up in the rain?
