A story in the shoe box

My crochet haven't progressed as I thought. Actually, it's almost done, but could not finish this weekend. The reason is this.


This is my daughter's "English" homework. Yes, "English" homework. Her task is that make imaginary world in a shoe box and write the story about it. The homework is this former bits :).

She says that she wants to make the scene on the moon in the shoe box. As Japanese people believe that there are bunnies on the moon and they make mochi, which is the rice cake made with a steamed sticky rice, she wants to make the moon with the bunnies on it.

It might be much easier if I let her make a kind of 2D world. But I made things a little complex ;).

We made the moon with papier mache, on the lit of rubbish bin ;), paint it, and cut it to fit into the small shoe box. Not only glued star shaped table confetti but hung them using nylon thread.

She drew bunnies. My favourite is this one;


Homework's done. She will bring this to the school tomorrow. Now I can start working on my "task" again, at last...
