It's been a while...
Today the kids actually asked ( they practically begged me) if they could do something creative. I had some of these square wooden pieces left over from a school project that I thought we could use. They actually came up with the idea to make a jigsaw puzzle each.
We painted a coat of white paint first. When that was dry we blue-tacked the squares to the table so they wouldn't move around when they were drawing on them. T drew a dinosaur and M a fairy scene. They used pastels to add colour so I gave them both a coat of clear polyurethane spray to finish.
They both want to take them to school on Monday : )

Awesome! That is such a neat idea Becky - my eldest is always begging to do something creative so thanks for sharing - will keep this one up my sleeve!
