Creative Free Time

G is a very creative guy. He gets that from his daddy. They are both on a never ending quest to figure out how to make things. Quite often during free time, G will wander around the house looking for things to use for his newest project. Yesterday the project that came to his mind was puppets. Now remember, he did this on his own with no help from me other than my approval of the materials he wanted to use. He used paper lunch bags, tape, markers, popcorn seeds and mini marshmallows (for the eyes, mouth and nose). Here's what he came up with:

Later in the evening, he used paper bags cut into strips and some tape to make himself into a helicopter. He taped the strips to his head for the blades, then he twist-jumped off the couch so his blades were spinning. LOL!
