When I saw your pictures and instructions, I knew we could do it. There were some changes I made since this was a first grade project and I didn't want to completely take over. It came out great and for this craft challenged mom, I REALLY appreciated the step by step pictures plus the instructions!!! Thank you again, she and I had fun doing it and aside from some help here and there, my daughter did this herself!!Aimee Ruedigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05409849956736588809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-58892723757882642252009-08-09T12:02:22.325+10:002009-08-09T12:02:22.325+10:00hi i am ashleigh and i love the rain forest but i ...hi i am ashleigh and i love the rain forest but i don't know how you made the animals so please tell me and also can i do a project like that? email me at arobinson@stclares.woll.catholic.edu.auAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-5742311687790965842009-05-05T03:29:00.000+10:002009-05-05T03:29:00.000+10:00this is awesome.great ideasthis is awesome.great ideasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7276278342039529509.post-39820517732653482632008-04-15T17:37:00.000+10:002008-04-15T17:37:00.000+10:00Thank you SO MUCH for putting this rainforest proj...Thank you SO MUCH for putting this rainforest project online for me to find!
