VBS Hero's!

This past week was our Church's VBS -- the theme was Hero's for God. Me and a friend of mine did the arts & crafts for the toddler classes (3-5 yr) -- there were about 50 kids in our age range. Anne Marie (and her buddies) being some of them. We decided that each day we would make a new part of a hero costume. By the end of the week they each had a cape, mask, 2 arm bands and a radio-transformer. The kids were sooooo cute!! The last night of VBS everyone comes back with their parents for a cook-out and a cute little program to "show-off" all they've learned during the week. We even had a silent auction to raise money for a child our Church is supporting in Guatemala. It always makes for a very long week, but we have a GREAT time!

After the hot-dog-cookout, the kids were allowed to get some energy out before their program in the jumping equipment they brought in.
What a fun week!!

What did you make the capes out of? I have a little super hero at my house who has been giving new life to the bibs that were previously in retirement...
Ann Marie did a great job with her mask and cape!

You rock for doing all this, and during a heat wave, I might add. The craft ideas are too cool!
