Thanks Jawan

I stumbled onto a blog of one of our preschool mom's while looking at a blog of a mutual friend of ours. She has some great stuff on there! One of which is the wordle thing. It was fun. You can make yours out of any words (www.wordle.net). I made a cool one, but I am not techy enough to figure out how to get it on here.
Jawan also had a craft she did with her kids making shrinky dinks from the plastic lids to aluminum containers. We made some tonight and had a great time watching the plastic shrink.
Don't tell me that you don't know what Shrinky Dinks are though! I am mortified at how many of you don't know what they are - how are you functioning adults?!? I was shocked when I told the preschool teachers about this that only 1 of them knew what they were (they also didn't know what Magic Rocks or Sea Monkeys were!). Then when he got home the kids showed Chad theirs, he said, "What's a Shrinky Dink?" Are you kidding me? I went nuts. I just don't know how you can not know that?!?
But anyhoo, thank you Jawan for the fun stuff! Speaking of cool ladies - how about that Sarah Palin?!? I want to be her best friend!
