Making our own spotty shirts for Children in Need
Like lots of mums, I packed my children off to school this morning wearing something spotty in aid of children in need. Now like lots of mums, I couldn't find anything spotty at all, so I decided that we should make some ourselves.
The boys had so much fun armed with my permanent markers and a shirt each, they made their own spotty t-shirts.
Don't they look grand?
We popped some card inside the t-shirts to stop the pen going through to the back and then I left the boys to it. Maxi was amazing in helping Mini. He drew a lot of his circles for him and then the drew a line in the middle and coloured in half each/
It was a joy to watch them work so well together and whilst they did it we talked about all the children less fortunate than them in the world and decided to give away 4 toys each to the charity shop, which I dropped off on the way home from taking them to school this morning.

You can wash the used tea cup in hot soapy water and reuse the tea cup.
