Glue sticks, the ones like Pritt Stick are the bane of my life.
J sniffs them out from their respective hiding places, and proceeds to glue any piece of paper he can find.
You have to be very careful with paper work as if left lying around he will have it and rip it into pieces ready to make his masterpiece.
Book covers have been decorated with ripped bits of paper.
He has glued pictures to mirrors.
He runs the glue through his hair for that sort of 'wet look' gel effect that was popular with boys in the 90's.
He will request "sticky time" when he sees the art and crafts come out for scheduled play with his middle brother.
We made a candle the other day from an empty cardboard tube, a bowl (to stick it to ) white paper to wrap around the tube, sparkly stickers and felt pieces, reflective paper on the inner tube, and some very shiny orange card which the flame was cut out of.
He would sing "happ birfday to youuuuu" and then try to blow the candle out.
I shop a lot at Hobby Craft for all kinds of different arts and crafts and I can get creative too which is always fun!
