Realism rocks! Lots of blood 'cause it probably ate the entire thing - like, a big thing - a triceratops or something. And it ate the WHOLE thing, guts and boogers and everything. 'Cause it was hone-gry!

Ethan-6yr knows about stuff like this because 6yr boys are total dinosaur experts.

Of course. Art simply must be realistic. Dinosaurs are a boy's best friend.

Good one Ethan! Gotta love those boys!!

Kids sure can call it like they see it, can't they? Like on Thursday night, when I told Sweet Girl that daycare was closed on Friday, so she would spend the day with me. "And we'll go have lunch with daddy. Doesn't that sound nice?!?" I enthused. "No," said she with a straight face, "I don't want to go have lunch with daddy. I want to stay with you. I want daddy to stay at work and keep busy all day". At that point, we were wondering if her daddy's boss was bribing her...
tee hee

Now this brings back memories. As a kid my older sister and my mom took me every Saturday to a ceramic shop to paint and have fun. Between the three of us we must have painted nearly a hundred peices. I stil have many pieces from each of us, including a set of Christmas ornaments, one for each family member with their names. I loved it.

Thanks for bringing back a great memory. I wish the place was still around.

I took my daughter to one of those places for her 8th birthday. We had a ton of fun. Painting anything can bring out so much of a kids personality. I love it.

Those places look awesome. I've heard it's really fun but can get pretty expensive. I'm glad you had a good time!!

OOoo that sounds awesome. I am thinking my almost two year old is not ready though! And I so agree, no taping me cuing my kid every two minutes!

Last time I took Reia there I forgot to go back and pick up her peice. I'm sure they've thrown it away by now. Oh well.

In my 8 year old sons book, the more blood the better. He has actually had temper tantrums when he couldn't find his red marker!!! Let that blood drip....
Thanks for stopping by my site. Your words meant a lot to me.

Hahahaha! Too cute.

Boys are just too cute!! HUH?

I love, love, love the pottery thing. With 4 girls this is a favorite for birthday parties and such .. but you sons comments aren't exclusive to boys .. my girls say stuff like that all the time ... I think it is their goal to make us BLUSH! :O)

That's funny, I too have only seen it on A Baby Story. If I see you on there in the background, I'll call ya.

Oh by the way, you've been tagged, find it here:

Tell me how you do it with your husband out of town? I go crazy when mine is gone an hour...and I only have one little one to look after.

Your little boy sounds hilarious! Good for him keeping reality alive. Honestly, when I see some of the art today, I wonder what universe these artists are from!!

One day when he is a famous artist, you will pull that plate out and wax philosophical about how "you knew back then he would be famous..."

If not then, you'll pull it out for him to use to eat when his first girlfriend comes over for dinner. Now that woud be classic!

He is all boy! It comes with the territory...testosterone!

Hello! I discovered your blog in looking for some Christian mommies out there, and it's great!
I love how you said that before this you'd only seen those pottery places on A Baby Story, where everything is all perfect and tidy lol! A Baby Story is the only place that I've seen them---maybe I'll have to try one sometime, since you said it was fun!

I want to see a pic of Ethan's carnivorous dino.
