Geodesic shapes!

This evening, C and I did something different.

When C saw these toothpicks and plasticine, she gave me this puzzled look. I told her it was going to be exciting!

I cut the plasticine into small pieces and she had to roll them into tiny balls.

Then the toothpicks. I gave her the instructions and she very carefully stuck the toothpicks into the plasticine.

Then the first piece of work was completed. C was really excited when she saw this 3 dimensional thing take shape.

She wasn't quite ready to go to bed yet so she said she wanted another go at the toothpicks and plasticine and this time, we made a pyramid.

Then she put the pyramid on top of the cube and she got a "house". Ha ha!
