Stringing Snakes

Well, this was supposed to be a bracelet making craft, but Chiquita had other ideas...

She loves snakes.  When we play with playdough it's all snakes and lizards.  We were at the aquarium and they had a snake to pet and we couldn't leave the room until the petting time was over, even though she was still too scared to pet it, she just wanted to point it out to me and talk about it.

So when I gave her cut up straws (for beads) and a pipe cleaning she immediately decided it was a pretty colorful snake.  When she was done she wrapped it around her arm and asked me to pet it.
