Radharani and Arjuna

This is Little Woman's new Radharani doll.   She is an Indian Queen.  Little Bit was born on Radharani's birthday while India was celebrating.  We decided to use this as her middle name.

Here are the two together.  Radharani is in her Choli (shirt) and skirt here.  This skirt is also used to tuck her Sari in (below).  Little Bit sewed both the shirt and skirt herself with almost no help.

Another picture of Little Boy's Arjuna.   Head archer and warrior in Indian stories.  Little Boy's middle name.

Wearing her Sari.

India studies

Here is the little woman in a sari her grandmother mailed her.

India Boy Doll

For our India World Religion studies the little ones and I are making India dolls. Here is Little Boy's doll named "Arjuna". Arjuna was a chief archer and strong warrior.

Fairy

Here is one of Little Bit's fairies.  She made about a dozen of them.

Fairy Houses!

Today we made Fairy Houses and Fairies.  This first one is the one Little Bit made.  We used oatmeal containers for the log.  Silk flowers and other do dads for decoration.

This next one is the one I made, I'm going to give it to a little girl we know who loves fairies too.

Here is the one Little Boy made.  His is a scene from the beach.  With sand glued on, shells, and lots of driftwood and seaweed.
