Glitter...Oh my!

I let Molly make her own Christmas tree ornament including using glitter.  I let her have full range of globing dotting her own glue and even pouring the whole bottle just a little glitter on.  Now don't worry I made sure to put a piece of paper under the glitter pouring so I could easily get the excess back into the bottle, so really no glitter was wasted.  Well maybe some was.  I thought it turned out pretty cute!  It made me chuckle when she was pouring the glitter because it brought back memories of when I was teaching in the self contained Special needs classroom.  I had a student that LOVED glitter, and anything else small that he could throw in the air.  If there was a bottle of glitter I mean in two seconds he would have it and in one motion grab it and throw the WHOLE bottle of glitter up in the air while yelling "you have won a million dollars!"  At the time it was not so funny because for days he would try to pick the glitter out of the carpet that the vacuum could not pick up and throw it in the air, but looking back now it kind of is funny.  Oh the stories I could tell :)
