I Believe That Is a Ghost…

Interesting artwork

The other day I was working on some things in the kitchen when I came across this interesting piece of artwork stuck on the outside of a container of cooking utensils.  I believe it is a friendly little ghost like creature.  The best part about having kids is you will find random little surprises laying around when you least expect it.

When we do review work for school the kids are allowed to do creative busy work with their hands as long as they are paying attention, answering the questions correctly (and in a timely manner), and not getting distracted.  I have found that by allowing them to fiddle or doodle around when studying they actually soak up more of the information on the specific topic we are studying.  On the flip side of that though is once the review is done the items are not always completely picked up or put away as we are usually moving on to dinner, showers, or another item so occasionally I will come across a interesting piece of artwork later on or the next day.

This particular piece of artwork appears to be made from silly putty and noise fluff.  Not sure if it is suppose to be a ghost or an octopus or what, but it did catch my attention.  I am not used to seeing shiny and slimy looking things sitting on top of containers in my kitchen.  Thankfully it was an actual toy not some food particles that were going bad.  Have you discovered any random artwork around your house lately or are my kids unique?
