Look What I Made

Makayla's friends Allie & Katie invited her to a neat little place in Long Beach called "Look What I Made" today.  You pay a little fee that's real reasonable and you can do all the crafts that they have set up for up to three hours as many times as you want.  There's painting, coloring, water colors, self portraits, stenciling, etc. etc.  The projects change daily also.  There's also an additional fee if you want to do bigger more specific projects that they have on display.  We just did the basics today and Makayla loved it!  It kept her quite busy and she's really crafty.  She really enjoyed the painting on the easel the most.  After a bit she was tired of the crafts and they had a play area with a kitchen and some slides and puzzles that kept the kids busy too.  It was also fun for Mom to hang out and chat with all the other moms.
