Abounding in Creativity

I have been told that 3 years old is the age when a child's imagination really takes flight.  Landry is knocking on the door of 3, and she's recently started showing lots of signs of a budding imagination.  Yesterday, while she played with playdough, she came up with new and interesting things to create.  In addition, she added details to each of her creations, taking her creativity even further.  I really enjoyed seeing her little wheels of imagination turning.  Here were some of her creations.


First she made a snake with yellow playdough, but then she decided she'd make a cupcake using the cup of playdough and turn the snake into a candle.  Here she is pretending to blow it out.



These are stamps with letters.  She usually uses them to make imprints on her playdough, but today she wanted to use them to make a house.

She then began to make cookies by flattening out the pieces of playdough.  But then those wheels started turning, and she decided to stack the cookies.  She said, "Look mommy!  It's a cookie Christmas tree!"


She couldn't forget to add the ornaments

Honestly, she came up with all of this on her own.  I gave no input whatsoever.  The "3's" should be fun and entertaining :)
