We kept them pretty busy, we made wooden spoon puppets, played football, went to the park, watched wallace and grommit, ate pizza and picked strawberries. It was a jam packed weekend, but one of the best things we did, was to make t-shirts.
We had one pack of iron on crayons (£1) and two t-shirts (75p each) all from Asda.
We drew our designs onto tracing paper, then coloured them in using the crayons. When they designs were done, I ironed them onto the t-shirts, and voila.
This one was designed and coloured by my 4 year old nephew (i love it):
This was the best fun and the boys loved their new t-shirts, and for £2.50 - what a bargain!

Those t-shirts are fabulous! I bet the boys were really delighted with them and think you are simply the best aunty in the world! Lucy x
Wonderful t shirts! When my now teenage daughter was about 7 she went to a 't shirt party' where all the girls made a design on a white t shirt. She will not part with it - it still sits in one of her drawers to this day. She adored it, and it still reminds her of happy times. I'm sure your nephews will be the same :) x
Brilliant T shirts. (Like the little cases too!)
You must be talked about at school, you are the coolest Aunty!!
Hurrah for transfer crayons x
What a fantastic aunty you are!! Those t-shirts are fab and such a great idea for keeping little hands busy.
Sounds like a great weekend :o)

Hi Monda!
What a fabulous idea. Love them! I bet they really enjoyed it. I have a nephew and a niece so I will try it this summer (planning to go to Japan again to look after them). Though I don't think I will be able to draw that well... It might just an abstract squiggle on their t-shirts...! LOL
