I wanted to make Esther a mobile for her bedroom.
So I looked through my pintrest file, "mobiles".
Which brought me to this photo.
Which linked me to this blog.
Have you seen this blog? This dad, Joel, stays home with his kids and plays with them. Really plays. He invents all kinds of games and home-made toys for them to play with.
This guy is inspiring.
Especially this post about a paper city road trip, so we had to make a version of our own.
Draw some cars (and their mirror images--harder than it looked!).
Color and cut them out.
Let the kids draw their own roads.
Don't get freaked out if they have different ideas than you.
I've made this mistake a couple times...
Play!
(I did eventually make Esther a mobile. I'll share that later.)
