The Quiet Book
I'd seen a few of these around on blogs and loved the idea so I thought it would be my april project. I got a lot of inspiration from Homemade by Jill and The Crafting Chicks.
Grace LOVES her book and I'll be starting on Charlottes soon - best thing is the pages will be interchangeable so they can swap them over and no one will get bored!
Page 1 Pick the apples
Dress ups and ice cream shop
The Barn with animal finger puppets and The counting page
Put the petals on the flower in numerical order and the cupcake page
Button the flowers and the castle (still to make the prince, princess and horse finger puppets)
There is still one more page - a mirror and hair to plait but I broke the mirror when binding the book :(
I am so very happy with how it turned out and Grace is over the moon with her book, it only comes out on special occasions ie when she needs to have quiet time!
I hope this gives you some inspiration to start your own quiet book and If you do please send me photos! I'd LOVE to see!!!
