She can't read
but she can felt.

Mollie, that's fantastic!! You have done a superb job on this one. The colours are just beautiful, and your hand sewing is so neat!
Sarah, she is miles ahead on what my 6yr brings home from school from her art/craft lessons. Grace would way rather be felting and sewing, than cutting and pasting. I might have to do something fun like this with her in the holidays.
Thanks Naomi! I'll show Moo your comment in the morning. I'm sure she will be thrilled.
You've reminded me that I need to post a photo of the boat that she built in their woodworking lesson.
Beautiful Work Mollie! The apple doesn't fall from the tree in your household Sara. I wish we had Steiner. IMO more harm is done by good than pushing kids before they are ready and unfortunately in most schools there is so much pressure to get kids to meet external standards there isn't the option of allowing kids to develop at their own pace.
WOW! Thats amazing!
My kids dont go to school. My 6yo learned to read at 3, easily by 4. Give her a needle and she wouldnt have a clue where to go.
My almost 5yo is learning to read, but loves to craft (needlefelted a dragon almost by himself) and my 3.5yo has only just weaned and can count to 10 via 18 HHAHAHAH.
They are all so different :)
Love the top, that would be something I'd be proud of for a loooong time :)
Way to go Moo. Love the colours.
Wow, I wish my 6 year old would make things like this at school! Just wonderful!
Mollie - you have done a brilliant job. Love the colours, everything went wonderfully. Well done.
Absolutely beautiful!
Talent runs in the family!
Gorgeous piece! Color composition and model! Can't believe that she constructed that herself! She sure has talent for these things!
Oh my goodness, she is quite right to be pleased, it is truly magical!
tell her well done!!
