Puppet Playtime

So yesterday my MIL and FIL and SIL and her husband all went Christmas shopping and left Shealyn, my other SIL in charge of the little nieces; Mikaela and Kynna. We were over mooching food and wasting time so we offered to help out with them. We eventually brought the whole crew to my house which is only a block away, so it's not that big of a deal and we found several ways to entertain them. A while ago while Tim and I were wandering around IKEA, we stumbled upon a bin of finger puppets and hand puppets. We grabbed two different kinds if the smaller ones because you could get more for the 2 bucks that we paid... Anyways, so Tim has been positivley itching to use these for something and TaDa! nieces are the perfect solution. Tim took them up to Mindy's house once and the girls LOVED them. So whilst we were in charge today, we took them out and Tim and the girls played with them. They had a lot of fun and it was really cute to see how excited they would get. Of course Mikaela would tell everyone what to say and that kind of took the imagination out of it, but they still had a blast.
