Boys made Bad Piggies contraption today out of an old wooden box and three broken Alvar Aalto stools... Notice also the small wheels attached to the wooden box. Notice the handbrakes on both sides of the device which, btw, travels on land quite fast!!! Priceless! Bad Piggies is popular puzzle video game developed by Rovio Entertainment.

My 4-year old son wanted to make some art, so I gave him an old scruffy shirt and a pair of scissors. With my guidance, he then carefully cut out the back piece of the shirt. Then I g ave my son a set of bullet tip fabric markers. He first wrote his name, then draw himself, mom , da d and his older brother .   He also draw our house with few windows , a door and steps upstairs, along with a slide and the sun and  some grass and flowers. Our 2012 season greetings cards – a reconstruction of the above painting – received a warm welcoming from family and friends.
