Jellyfish

Livie had her first homework project of the year. She had to make a sea creature, either real or imaginary, for her school Open House on Monday. It's titled "Under the Sea". I remember Madie doing it, but I think Noah did a farm theme. Sadly, I can't remember!


Anyway, after much discussion, she decided she wanted to make an octopus. She started to draw it and I realized this "octopus" was like the meanest, nastiest octopus ever! Giant, razor-sharp, navy blue teeth. Mean, menacing eyebrows. This was going to try and eat all the other children's projects. I just knew it.

Well, as she kept working on it, it started to morph. Yes, it still had the menacing eyebrows. Yes, it still had ever-expanding, t-rex sized molars, but, it also had a big clown nose and rainbow colors to make it look just a little cute. It was also decided at some point in the project that the legs for the octopus would look cooler as jellyfish tentacles (or whatever those things are called), so the crazy, killer octopus turned into a slightly less scary, but still ready-to-eat-ya jellyfish! We'll have to see on Monday if the other sea creatures that get hung up that night have any bite marks taken out of them!
