Art and "pannkoogimoos"


Monday is pancake-day.

On Mondays, after the afternoon snack, I pick Joonas up from school and we head to what is euphemistically called art class. Art is relative - most of the time we mess around with paint, flower, dried leaves, glue and soap bubbles, accompanied by some nice songs and playtime. Depending on the age of the artists, part of the output gets eaten, something which is luckily taken into account when choosing the materials.

Joonas loves going, mostly because the teacher every time succeeds in introducing a theme and in making it fun for all ages. Not that he displays any apparent artistic talent, but the nice coloured stains on his (and mine) clothes sure make everything nice and joyful.

After this "fine mess" it is time for pancakes. In recent weeks, Maria (Gerli's daughter) joins us, to eat and play. Two rascals with character, but it certainly livens up the place :-)
