Crafting with Matilda - Part 2

So, after completing the "Sweet Little Canvas" (see January post), the next craft kit that Matilda wanted to do was a Fairy Castle Canvas from the Early Learning Centre.




The kit contained a white canvas about A4 in size with a line drawing of the castle etc. pre-printed on it, a set of paints, and some wool, glitter and star embellishments to add at the end.  



Matilda really enjoyed painting the canvas.  The paints that were provided with the kit were nice colours and went on nicely, but we also ended up using some of Matilda's other paints too.  Then, when the paint was dry the real fun started.  Using the embellishments and glitter provided, plus extra glitter that she already had, Matilda turned the canvas into a very pretty and magical picture which she was justly proud of.



I would definitely recommend this simple but effective kit to parents of similarly creative children.
