Kindergarten Pony Parade


Katie came home from school one day with instructions and a pattern for making a stick horse. They were due in 1 week! Do kindergarten teachers think us parents have lots of spare time? I don't know what the non-crafty Moms due in situations like this...but we went to the fabric store and Katie picked out fleece in various colors for her horse. Every detail, right down to the bridle and bow (not visible in the picture) were of her choosing. I got to spend an afternoon putting it together. Fortunately I had some foam left from shadowboxes with which to stuff this horsehead, and Andy had a couple of bamboo sticks that he had plucked from a marsh near his friend Josh's house. So other than $4 for fleece and the button eyes, this was with whatever we had laying around the house. The horse's name is Cinnamon. They had a Pony Parade around the school, and posed in the classroom afterwards.
