Very Cute Visitors!

Open the Book!

Testing our 3LP Schools!
Once all the schools had been made, it was time to put them to the test! First, we tested how waterproof they were. We started with a droplet of water, then a spoonful and finally, a whole cup of water! All of the schools were pretty waterproof and would definitely have kept the piggies dry! We…
