100 Days

Payton celebrated her 100th day of Kindergarten this week. As part of the special day, Payton's homework was to make a collection of 100 items. I remember doing this same project in elementary school as well. After talking with Auntie Abby and hearing stories about how kids tell her their moms do ALL of the project themselves, Payton and I sat down Monday night and hot-glued ONE HUNDRED pom-poms on to posterboard so that Payton could create a VERY long caterpillar. She did 99% of the work (hot glue guns aren't so great for 5 years olds) and practiced her counting a lot. I think it turned out great!
