Henry & I worked on a sword & shield for his knights party at school tomorrow; his class has been alternately (& simultaneously) interested in medieval times and super heros. It has been interesting to watch Henry go through this with them. He is also interested in "transformers" as in he'll stand by his dress-up box and "transform" into a skunk and then "transform" into a fire-fighter, etc. Anyway, he was super excited to go online and research just the right shield design and then was very patient while I crafted it (I went all fancy with my vacuum cleaner box (I knew I saved it for a reason!), aluminum foil, & packing tape--ha!).
