Here are some pics from the last couple weeks of our Konos Obedience study.

We put the castle together today from the link in the below post. Skylar is still working on cutting his out.You can add additional towers and walls to make it as large as you like. And yes, we realize the doors on the towers should be opening INTO the courtyard, not out. But it was too late by the time we recognized our error. Made for good discussion, though, and Brayden doesn't care.

This pic is Skylar and Paige making their 3-D swords. The cross in the middle is raised and Skylar's has bolts around the outer edge. I need to get a pic of the finished product. We painted the field metalic silver and then they added color to the details. Brayden just made a cardboard sheild.

This is a shot of the kids whittling soap - inspired by Robin learning to whittle in A Door In The Wall. Brayden's boat ended up breaking but we had JUST read the part in the story where Robin's cross breaks and he gets angry and throws the chisel. We were able to laugh it off as, "That's the same thing that happened to Robin! I'm glad you didn't act like he did."
