Jeweled Acorns

Thanks to Mammie for this great craft idea!

Step 1 - Collect acorn caps while enjoying a wonderful fall walk.

Step 2 - Color the inside of the acorn caps.

Step 2 continued - Be sure to use a variety of colors, but only one color per acorn cap.

Step 3 - Ignore the marker all over your face and hands while pushing the acorn caps into Play Doh.

Step 4 - Squeeze Elmer's glue into the caps and watch the colors start to spread.

Step 5 - Throughout the next few days, watch as the acorns become jewels.  Then you can use these jewels to play matching games or even stack them.

Step 6 - Check on your baby sister.  Looks like tummy time turned into nap time!
