Meet Twisty People and Bouncy Family

Excuse the horrible cell phone pics...but Carter and I wanted to show you what we made today!

Here is Twisty People. Carter named the first one "Carter" and he affectionately named the second one "Carter" as well. He can come up with other names...I think he is just a little egocentric.

Here is the Bouncy Family. Daddy Bouncy, Carter Bouncy, and Mama Bouncy.
You can play with them like little springs hopping along or you can use them as finger puppets.


I was walking by the dollar bins at Target the other day and saw the pipe cleaners and picked up some googly eyes and pom poms from the bins as well. 3 bucks is not too shabby for some good, creative fun. Super cheap and super easy for hours of fun and you can use and reuse them. Some of you probably have this stuff lying around anyhow. I was just super proud of my "moment of genius" because my creative moments are few and far between...I am sure some of you are guffawing at what I call "creative". BUT if any of you decide to try these out do post pictures for me to see! I want to see what little creatures you come up with!

That is a cute idea, I think I lack anything creative so I totally copy everyone else! So, thanks for the idearrrrrs. (it is more fun to say idea with an "rs" on the end, if you didnt already know)

Oh that's a good idea! Carter is so cute! I love his cheesy smile and that he named both of those things Carter.
