I thought I'd pop by and post a few cool pictures from my shift at Canuck Place a couple of weeks ago!
So it was teen boy's night, and whole bunch of them were eager to play games/watch movies/watch football with Malcolm and Santos...but there was also one girl in the house who needed hanging out too! So Janelle and I had wonderful girl time with Anastasia.
Anastasia gave us the idea of building animals and farm things out of clay, and then use them to play farm. Janelle had the even more ingenious idea of using Fimo and then actually baking it so we could keep our creatures!
Anastasia made a nice flag and some chickens, Janelle made an amazing horse (that looks like a dumb version of the one in Toy Story), and I made a little poodle, some vegetables, and a basket.
Santos came by for a bit and made this SUPER CUTE ancient looking bunny, complete with confused grandpa eyebrows.



So we popped it into the oven...and the basket melted - it was not Fimo! Boy were we lucky that we were nervous about the baking, because we checked it pretty soon after it started melting so we were able to salvage all the important figures.


So anyways...all our creatures came out safe and sound, after a much fussed over baking process (although Janelle's horse's leg broke off)...and us volunteers got to keep our little creatures!
It was one of the more productive nights that I have had at the hospice. :P
