Pet Rock

 I found these cute little match boxes and thought we should create pet rocks.  In a large supply bin of leftover stuff, I found some small rocks that we spray painted orange last year to create 5 pumpkins to be stored in small bags.  They were the perfect size for our project this time, too.

The kids chose a tissue paper square to glue into the box.  This is the blanket for rock. 

The next step was to add a small construction paper pillow.   Rock needs to be comfortable, you know.

Then it was time to choose a rock and add a face.  I love how kids think anything with a face is alive.  Almost immediately, kids were making their little rocks talk to each other.  This is cheap and easy fun! The little match boxes can be easily made out of paper.  Happy Friday!♥♥♥

American Girl by Tom Petty.♫  Enjoyed seeing Tom Petty a couple of years ago.  Of course, Eddie Vedder had to crash the show, why does he ALWAYS do that?
