The other day Abigail announced that she had a school project to do. Apparently the project involves a clay model of a lighthouse. Not any kind of ordinary lighthouse but some ancient lighthouse at Alexandria.
This project is being done together with a friend of hers. Their plan is to build this contraption out of clay then paint it, place it on a base then take it to school.
I had premonition of all kinds of danger. Mainly uncorrectable mess. I forgot to say that the work is to be done in our house. This kind of undertaking should be done in a backyard or in a garage. We live in an apartment that is not equipped to be an art studio.
Anyway, today the girls bought 10 lbs of clay, paint and brushes as well a wooden base for the tower. I am very curious to see what will come out of this because so far all I see is a lots of giggling and no action.
None of the girls have ever done anything like this before and right now it is the blind leading the blind.
