The Letter U

Ute, Ursula, und Ullrich, die Ungeheuer
(Ute, Ursula, and Ullrich, the Monsters)

They worked on their Ungeheuer for AN HOUR!!!

 Joshua was a big help to Abigail

 This is Ute. She is a superhero monster as seen by her cape

Abigail's (Ursula) is not quite finished. Ursula has a beak.

And then they played and played and played with them

This is Ullrich (At first he was named Udo).  Ullrich is very complex.  He has eyes on his wings, a light purple hat, a really really long arm (the purple and pink thing tied together), a drink with a straw (that's the orange thing) and a handle (that's the light green thing under the orange thing).  Ullrich's father is a glow stick, but since the glow stick can't walk, Ullrich has to hold him with his long arm.

Our monsters are scary...

 ...really scary!!

(So far this has been one of my favorite craft activities with the kids. I put out a bunch of stuff, gave them a few ideas, handed them the glue and let them go. I know we did Monsters for M with our mini monsters, but that craft was so mother-driven that it doesn't really even compare to this one. Plus, I couldn't think of another U word that I really wanted to do.)
