Peek-a-Boo. Who's under There?


I know this must look funny, but there is a hat being made in this photograph. It's a "recycled" hat. Take two sheets of old newspaper and turn them so that all the points are showing. Then take some tape and make it go around the model's head (this takes two people) to hold down the newspaper. Then just roll up the edges and, PRESTO, a new chapeau. I'm being like FANCY NANCY and using big words. "Chapeau" is French for "hat"! Google "Fancy Nancy" if you don't know who she is. She is one of Mom's favorite characters in new children's literature.
FYI--Liane, the Executive Director of Read to Me International, was under the newspaper!
