Jan Brett website

May 5, 2008

The kids and I love the work of author and illustrator Jan Brett. This past week we read The Mother's Day Mice by Eve Bunting (another fav author), illustrated by Brett. Such a sweet read about finding the perfect gift for mother's day.

Anyway, this weekend we discovered Jan Brett's website and Hedga & Hedgie the hedgehog paper dolls. The kids have literally spent the weekend printing, coloring and dressing these cuties. Due to rainy weather and the immobility caused by Celine's sprained knee (a post on this to follow later sometime this week) we were indoors a lot and this activity helped passed the time.

Good old-fashioned paper doll fun with a modern age internet twist.
