Eastertide in Graditude and Celebration: Creative Playful Moments
I have several Godly play projects in the works right now and several more ideas percolating. But I think it is often best in the home when projects happen spontaneously. Isaac and I were sitting by the godly play shelves last week and I pulled a Bible off the shelf and turned to the story of "The Great Catch". After we finished reading I grabbed my felt basket and began cutting fish. "In every color Mom." And he sorted and counted as I cut. "More, make more." So we sat and cut for a very long time. I found a mint tin to keep our little fish in and cut nets from a lemon bag. Isaac was so excited to show Rowan when he came home from school. And Rowan was so excited he ran for scissors and I had to get the felt basket back out so he could try cutting some fish. I hope I can be open to these moments and ready to grab them. It is such a joy to share and play with our Story together.
