Go Away Big Green Monster!

The boys have been reading a book at preschool called "Go Away Big Green Monster" and love talking about it and pretending the monster is hiding in their rooms as they go hunting for it together.  This afternoon Oliver asked if he could make the green monster out of play-doh.  I found an adaptation of the story as a song on You Tube this week, and he wanted me to pause it on the face so he could see what it looked like as he worked his creation.  I helped by cutting out paper for the eyes, mouth, and teeth (he specifically requested I use both the white and yellow paper for the eyes, just like it the picture), and Owen glued the pieces together.  I'd say he did a really good job and was impressed that he came up with the idea and was so determined to make it look just right!
