Learning to Braid


Amelia asked if I would teach her to braid the other day.  I initially told her she was too young to learn, but then the more I thought about it, the more I figured she was actually the perfect age to learn.  She LOVES making patterns and has learned "right" and "left", so why not?  I decided to start her using pipe cleaners, thinking it would be easier to learn using those in case she let go mid-braid.

Turns out, she is a natural!  And as an added bonus, she requests a braid in her hair almost every day.  Now if only she could braid it herself.

Next up?  Shoe tying!
