Like most (all?) kids, Elizabeth loves to make art. (Although, she doesn't think of herself as an artist. Tonight she told me she's "almost" an artist.) Lately, she's been working on this project started with a 2x4 scrap. Barb has allowed her to use screws, nails, and pins (!) in addition to her usual paint, glue, whatever. Elizabeth loves using her wooden toy hammer to drive the nails -- it works like a champ.
I'm very impressed by the fact that she's actually making something -- it's a playground that she's sculpting here -- not just randomly driving nails and turning screws and spraying glue. And she works on it not every day, but consistently, adding a bit here and there as new material comes her way.
