Samir is very temperamental these days and just wasn't going to get the whole share your crayons thing- plus our homeschool teacher was expected to arrive within twenty minutes. This was not the time to have a life lesson on sharing crayons, especially with a nonsensical two year old capable of ear popping screams.
Anyway sometimes good things come out of tough situations right? So is the story of Saydas new crayon tin.
I had duct tape left over from our pouch craft, and an empty tea tin.
No tutorial needed! The only advice I have is to make sure the lid doesn't have a layer of duct tape on the inside or it becomes hard to close ( as duct tape is thick). I folded the edges over into the inside of the lid and now Sayda can't close it herself. However it alsoeams Samir can't open it- which works for me.
It's always great to re-use items that you've got hanging around the house, and to make them unique!
Plus- no more crayon fights, which should give them plenty of time to learn how to share a billion other things in life. {unless of course Samir decides that he wants the Frozen Tin- and believer that's a very real possibility #knockonwood}
