When Bea was really little, I rarely gave her toys to entertain herself in the car or when we went to people's houses. At age 2 she entertained herself on a two-hour car ride with nothing but a baby wipe in her hand, folding it, pretending it was God knows what, having a ball. Well that creative streak has continued and her new hobby is fashion design. She turns toilet paper and/or Kleenex into some amazing dresses, headwraps,and even shoes, as evidenced by this runway model that I found hanging around this week.
and here's a handbag from the same line:
and a quick funny....when I recently was asking that she stop imaginative play/conversation because we were going to visit people and I wanted her to talk "to real people about real things," she pulled up a pretend phone to her ear, said "alright...." in a very dejected voice, then pretend dialed and ordered "one ticket to reality please..."
