Silence of the Lambs. (aka when good ideas go bad)

We watched an adorable Sesame Street video today called "Learning to Read".  The children loved the songs, and were particularly enamored by the singing scientists who wore sunglasses and did a spectacular performance on word families.




(AND OMG here it is!! Thank you You Tube.  Please watch- it's hysterical.)





They took it upon themselves to make their own masks in an attempt to mimic the adorable muppets, and wanted me to video their planned performance of their "At" family song.





At first, the masks seemed to come along nicely as they rummaged for supplies through the scrap box and my craft cupboard.

And then Mr. and Mrs. Lector showed up.

Yikes. 

I might not sleep tonight.
