Chase's adventure for Thursday was going to Story Time with Miss Candy at the Columbia Library. Miss Candy read two books about stars, while Chase sat on Nanaw's lap -- which Nanaw really enjoyed. The craft was a fun one -- making a star light catcher. Miss Candy had the boys and girls shave different colored crayons using a pencil sharpener. They put the shavings on a piece of waxed paper and folded the waxed paper over the shavings. Then Miss Candy put a piece of paper on top of the waxed paper and ironed it to melt the crayon shavings. It made a colorful design. Then the children pasted the outline of a star over the melted shavings and cut out the star and put a ribbon through the top -- voila! a star light catcher.
