Coloring, cutting, folding …that’s all it takes to keep Ms. Nadia busy 😃
Drawing umbrella patterns and cutting them out here…
Carefully folding on the lines here…
And voila there’s our pretty umbrella ☂
Nadia drew a little girl…it’s very handy for her walk today.

Back after a long time!
Some fun with interior decoration 😃
Nadia modeled the rooms after our current place.
Here’s the kitchen with the oven, dishwasher and sink.
Love the pop out furniture here.
Having a lot of fun playing with the paper rooms.

Cutting felt and stitching to make purses…
Look at those tiny stitches…
Isn’t that pretty?
Nadia added a button so the purse can be closed.
Another blue one…
With a butterfly 🙂
These turned out really well!
We have been using these as gift card holders.
Have a great Sunday!

Nadia’s favorite snack is Banana bread from Starbucks…she doesn’t like the nuts though…so now she has decided to make her own nut-free version.
We put all the ingredients together…
She blended them…
Really well…
And here it is ready to go into the oven
Note: if this becomes a regular thing I need to buy her a bread pan.
It turned out great…showed her how to prick with a toothpick and make sure it’s all cooked.
The chef sampling her own creations and giving it a thumbs up too!
She baked enough for 2 days and saved a piece for her Baba too.

Let’s make learning fun!
Nadia and I made a game on how to tell time. Here, Nadia is cutting out little pieces with numbers and events written on them. Let’s do this!
Here is our time and note chart…I spin the minute and hour hand and Nadia reads it and choose the right numbers and the right event. Eg. 8.05 AM is when school starts.
6.30am is wake up time!
Having a blast and learning at the same time…
8:00PM – time for bed now…Good night all.
Have a great week.

Nadia has been having some fun with felt…here she is stitching together a bear puppet.
And a blue elephant…
Put your fingers through and that’s excellent toy!
Here is the pair…aren’t they just too cute!
Have a great week.

I got my very own hand made lion soft toy for mother’s day 🙂
Nadia cut out some felt pieces…
And she stitched them together…
Filled them with bits of unused felt…
Look at that tail and awesome stitching…
Happy mother’s day!
Hope everyone is having a great mother’s day.

Aruna
Nadia is doing a Japan segment at school and learning a lot. Quite fascinated with Kimonos at the moment.
We made a few Japanese paper dolls…they can also be used as bookmarks.
I walked into her when she was already at making the head phase!
Adding on the sleeves now…
Isn’t she cute?
Love them!
Cheers,
Aruna
Making animals with pegs and paper….
Pipe cleaners for legs…here is an alligator
And a sleeping tiger…
Here they are all hanging out…
The bat…ready to take flight
The Panda…
The Tiger…
Aren’t they cute?
So much fun!
Have a great week.

Spring is finally here in Milwaukee…we kicked it off with the first ride of the summer.
So happy to see Reggie after a long winter…here’s hoping Reggie feels the same way 🙂
Going for ballet class without a jacket also was good fun…Nadia picked some weeds and skipped around the backyard before class.
Finally a swing in the hammock…because we finally can 😃
Here’s to sunny days and great weather!
Enjoy your weekend.
Cheers,
Aruna
