Fun with Ceramics

One Thursday, we went to the Craft Center on post to see what the Toddler Craft Class was all about. The woman who was in charge of it had just gotten back from vacation, so she didn't have anythign special planned and they just finger painted. We do that at home pretty often, so Austin knew exactly what to do.

After the class, we found out that they have a paint and take ceramics area that kids can do. You basically just pick out two white ceramic figures, paint them, then the workers spray on a matte finish and you take them home that day.

Austin wanted to do this, so we picked out two figures (they had a lot of Halloween stuff out) and got down to business.

Do you see how serious he looks? He concentrated so hard on painting these things!

Here are the finished products (minus the eyes and mouth the worker put on for him so you could actually see a little detail). He was so proud of them! He said that the ghost was for Daddy and that the witch was for me. :-)
