It Takes a Village
{Home Economic Days with Nanna}
We do our Home Ec classes every Friday, and they are planned and organized with the help of my mom. I really enjoy that she is an integral part of my children's education. There is a part of me that wants to do everything for my children myself, and when I had my first couple, I did. As I had more children, the extra help was welcomed. It's good for kids to learn different perspectives and who better than their Nanna to embark on art projects, baking, and sewing. My mom is very skilled and brilliant in all of the above, (and more), and I love that my children have created no only keepsakes, but memories with her. We love Fridays, Home Ec day with nanna!
This week was a pillow craft. My moms friend had gifted the girls two plain white pillows, so we bought some Crayola Fabric markers from Walmart and went to town decorating them. There were only two pillows so Sanaa made her own and Sultana helped Sahira design hers. They each picked out a quote and stenciled their designs in pencil first.
