She already loves crafts and creating, so we spent a little time making puppets from a couple of kits I'd bought cheaply at Wilkinson's and then putting on a puppet show. I know I'm probably biased, but Tot has a fabulous imagination, and needs very little encouragement to tell stories!
Despite her short fingernails, Tot was ace at peeling off the backing on the sticky felt...
Tot called the bodkin a "magic pen" - I thought that was very apt!
I did have to guide the needle through the holes, but Tot pulled the yarn through - she liked that bit!
The finished tiger!

Oh Nic, it sounds like a great day! The Tot is so cute and the puppet looks like to was lots of fun to make. :)
she's adorable and so's the tiger! :) good work getting her addicted at a young age.
She is so adorable and the Tiger is too cute! The younger they start on crafting things, the better!
Aww, talk about cute as a little bug's ear! That's a good lookin' tiger, too.
Your niece is so adorable! The finished tiger looks great too. I am sure she would be really proud making it.
