OK, I am the mother of a 15 year old & on occasion I do find it hard to decipher the grunts, groans and scowls - don't get me wrong I also get hugs, smiles & speech!! But I do wonder sometimes if we speak the same language so I've created a little "Translator" to assist in the comprehension of the strange species known as "Teenager"
Here it is:
I've made a jazzy notice board using "Gripping Stuff" a double sided sticky felt that grips to a wall or cupboard (without damaging it) and enables you to press-on and peel-off piccies over and over again. I've not really made it such an odd shape, but I had to bunch the images up a tad to fit them all on the scanner - its actually 12" x 10" so I've plenty of room to add more.
Of course this means I'll be able to update it with additional seasonal characters (keep them coming Dustin) throughout the year!!
Now when communication seems too much of an effort my darling son can move the arrow!!! I suspect it will be pointing to "hungry" most of the time as the kid has hollow legs and is always raiding the cupboard!!!!
Here are close ups of the individual images:
Images: Dustin Pike
Paper: Gripping Stuff Memo Board
Colouring: Copics
Additional: Quickutz arrow, Nestabilities & a brad
Good luck to everyone entering
