Creativity at it's best:
I've let this project go on for about 3 days so far. This has been JV's idea from the beginning. I've given no directions. It's unstructured play at it's best. Sure, it's a bit messy leaving this project on the kitchen floor, but I've noticed that he's been whining less and has taken more control and pride in his work. He even cleaned up a spill that he had, without whining for me to do it. From the role of a child having to do what everyone else wants and when they want to do it, I have to imagine that it's nice knowing that he can completely control something from start to finish.
So yes, my floor is a mess, but my child it happy and that's what really matters.
