Lydia's bird project

Lydia has her first REAL project tomorrow. She had to pick any type of bird and present it to her class. She picked the penguin. She wanted to make a penguin out of a plastic bottle. So, with the help of her crafty daddy, we now have a penguin made from a water bottle, a sock, a tennis ball, lots of electrical tape, a little paper painted orange, yarn for the beak, and furniture cushions for the eyes. I think they did a fabulous job. She loves him and is so excited to present him to her class.




She had to make something representing a penguin habitat. This was my part! After making the penguin Dave said his brain was fried!! So, with a basket, paper, a rock from our flower bed, her Barbie camper pool, and some homemade fish, here's his habitat!



For her presentation, she is telling her class 5 facts about penguins:

1. Penguins live in Antartica.

2. Penguins cannot fly.

3. Penguins have webbed feet.

4. Penguins eat small fish.

5. Penguins have tall bodies and short legs.

I sure wish I could go tomorrow and listen to all her class' presentations. As excited as she is about it, I know she will do a wonderful job. Good luck baby girl!
