Sheep and Shells

An idea that has morphed over time....

I pick up a shell or two when I'm at the beach, and often have one in my pocket to give away. 

This little sheep purse holds just a few tiny things. A smooth rock, a tiny wooden cup, a dog's tooth, and several shells. I change out the shells and rocks from time to time, and when a little person needs something to keep them occupied, out comes the sheep purse. 

I sometimes sit next to the child and marvel at how they manipulate, consider, and finger the items. 

But most times it is a quiet work that can keep a four-year-old busy for longer than you'd think!

Cheers, friends!
