Default SU products to the rescue!!!

This morning while getting ready for school my 8 year old son announces that he forgot to make a Venus fly trap model for science and that this project is due TODAY!! We had 25 minutes. So we took a pair of ice tongs with large "teeth" and covered them with Glorious Green c/s and put Cameo Coral on the inside of the trap. He added a bee from Botanicals on the outside for food since these plants are carnivores. The project was held together w/ a large rubber band, mono adhesive and the glue pen. I traced while he cut and assembled. He was thrilled w/ the finished product and I was relieved. I'm not sure he learned any lesson about preparation but we did get it done and it was sure nice to have all those SU supplies at my disposal!!! Botanicals is still my favorite set!!!

wow! That was quick thinkin'! I think I would have told my son 'too bad, you should've told me sooner'. My son has a tendancy to remind of permission slips, notes, etc just as we are walking out the door.
