Aden had to make a bat for school out of items we already as around the house. So, I whipped out the sewing machine and one black sock, two pipe cleaners, some stuffing, a piece of red yarn, and two googly eyes later we had a stuffed bat!! It is sooooo cute and my kids were very impressed that I could pull off something "Grammy Worthy"! I was proud of my 20 minute master piece!! Aden was very helpful too!
