Rocket Man

Gherkin decided that he wanted to be a rocket man today.  It was a very long discussion about how he wanted to make a rocket.  I tried to convince him to use his oversized tinker toys but he wanted to use the chairs in dining room.  I finally got him to use the bar stools.  Then we found the roll of paper and make it a rocket. 

Decorating the Rocket
Gherkin decided that it would be an Easter Rocket so he started drawing Easter eggs around the rocket.

 Then he decided that he needed a helmet.  We looked a bit on the internet to find some patterns.  He really wanted a paper mache helmet but I convinced him he didn't have enough time.  We settled on a paper bag for simplicity sake.

 Gherkin has been working on his cutting skills as well as his sensory stuff.  He decided to cut a circle on his own tonight - I was very proud of him!  Maybe tomorrow we will challenge his sensory system and make that paper mache helmet.
