After taking the exam of Huijia Primary School, Xi Xi was considered to be half a step into elementary school, although the results were not out yet. Of course, she was also about to graduate for the first time in her life — kindergarten graduation!
Normally, kindergarten graduation didn't receive any special treatment, but Springfield Kindergarten was different. They would make a commemorative album, which included photos of all the children and teachers in the upper class, as well as some wonderful photos of activities in the kindergarten. This album would be given to each child at the small "graduation ceremony" held by Springfield Kindergarten as a souvenir!
"We should also make something for Teacher Mu, Teacher Shen, and Teacher Cai as a souvenir, to thank them for their careful teaching in the past two years, don't you think so?" That evening, when Xi Xi came back from kindergarten, Yang Yi suggested.
This was called thanking the teachers for their kindness. Yang Yi didn't like to make it too complicated, as it was full of the smell of money. Making handicrafts and giving them to Xi Xi's teachers could not only let Xi Xi participate in it, but also express Xi Xi's feelings well. It was much more meaningful than treating them to a meal!
Xi Xi nodded briskly. She propped herself up on the sofa, and her big eyes showed great interest. She asked, "Then, PaPa, what should we make?"
"What handicrafts do you want to give to the teachers?" Yang Yi asked.
This was too difficult for Xi Xi. How could a little girl have any good ideas?
"Well, PaPa, you can make a little red horse, so that you can give it to the teachers!" Xi Xi tilted her little head, thinking and pouting her little mouth.
"That won't do. You have to make it. PaPa can help. PaPa has almost finished making the little red horse, so it can't be considered as yours. Moreover, this is a specialty of Lu Weisha's hometown, so it's not appropriate for us to give it to her. "Yang Yi laughed.
"But, okay … Then what should we make?" Xi Xi hesitated for a while, and then kicked the ball back to her father.
This was indeed a difficult problem.
Murphy listened and said with a smile, "How about making a pen holder? I used to make it when I was a child. There are many ways, such as taking a roll of paper in the middle, wrapping it with a hemp rope, and decorating it. This can make a pen holder, or you can take an unwanted mat, make a section, and roll it up … "
Speaking of the handicrafts that she used to play with in the United States when she was a child, Mo Fei was completely interested. She said a lot of things excitedly, "… not only because it's easier to make, but also because the circle around it can be used for Xixi to draw, or we can make some other decorations."
.... . "Murphy remembered the gossip Yang Yi had told her about Guo Ziyi and Ding Xiang. She even went to the house to see the seashell birds that Guo Ziyi had bought for Ding Xiang. Murphy said happily," We can use seashells to decorate it. When we go to the beach in the coastal area, Xi Xi, you can personally find some beautiful seashells on the beach, and we can paste them on it. This pen holder will become even more beautiful! "
Xixi was listening happily at the side. The little girl waited for her mother to stop for a while before she interrupted with a smile, "MaMa, I know, I know. Teacher will like it more if I draw on it, right?"
"Yes! That's right … "Murphy wanted to continue.
However, Xi Xi still held her Mom's hand excitedly, and she said anxiously, "Then, Mom, can I draw Xiao Guai? Xiao Guai is super cute, and, and Teacher Shen likes cats very much. She has two cats at home, and I've even seen photos of them! One of them is very, very big, but it's not like Xiao Guai, and it's not black … "
Alright, the little girl was rambling on, and she didn't know where she was going!
Yang Yi and Murphy looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Murphy couldn't take back the topic, and in the end, they had to wait for Xi Xi to finish before Yang Yi took over from Murphy to conclude.
"Alright, we'll make three different pen holders for the three teachers. Alright, sit down. I'm going to announce the specific division of labor now! "Yang Yi said.
Xi Xi's eyes lit up. This was one of her favorite segments recently. The little girl walked around nimbly, climbed onto the sofa, and sat next to her mother obediently. She looked at her father and listened attentively.
"Now, I'll appoint your mother as the technical director. She'll be responsible for the technical guidance of the pen holder production," Yang Yi said solemnly.
Xi Xi turned to look at her mother and giggled.
"Got it! I'm the technical director! "Murphy was playful. She held back her laughter, put on a straight face, and nodded solemnly.
"Then, Comrade Xi Xi!" Yang Yi looked at Xi Xi.
Xi Xi, who turned her head, immediately straightened her little chest.
"Comrade Xi Xi will be the artistic director. You'll be responsible for making the pen holder beautiful. Can you complete the difficult task given to you by the organization?" Yang Yi held back his laughter and asked solemnly.
"Yes, yes, I can!" Xi Xi's movements were more serious, but she couldn't look serious. She smiled and said sweetly.
"Then, your father will be the logistics supervisor. I'll be responsible for preparing the materials for you." Yang Yi waved his hand and ended the important division of labor.
"What about little brother?" Xi Xi asked as she pointed at Tong Tong, who was sitting on the sofa and holding a toy cart.
Tong Tong seemed to have realized that his sister was calling him. When his father and mother looked over, the little guy also raised his little head and looked over.
"Yaya!" Tong Tong liked the feeling of being noticed. He happily waved his other little hand and greeted his sister.
However, the little guy didn't sit very firmly. He lost his balance and almost fell back on the sofa. Of course, Murphy supported him in time.
After the little guy sat firmly, he giggled even more happily. He even threw away the toy cart and clapped his two little hands. This was what Murphy taught him. The little guy could now imitate some simple actions!
"Little brother will be the quality supervisor! He'll watch us do it. If it's done well, he'll clap his hands. If it's not done well, he won't clap his hands. "Yang Yi said with a smile.
"Hee hee, okay! Little brother will also have a job! "
Xi Xi smiled and slipped off the sofa. She picked up the toy cart that Tong Tong had thrown to the ground and playfully shook it in front of Tong Tong's eyes.
Tong Tong blinked his eyes. He quickly realized that his favorite toy was in his sister's hands. The little guy immediately stretched out his little hands and cried, "Ai ai!", wanting to take it back.
"Big sister will give it to you. You have to clap your hands for big sister! You can't not like the pen holder that big sister made, okay? "Xi Xi handed over the toy cart and muttered to Tong Tong.
Tong Tong ignored her words. He grabbed the toy cart and stuffed it into his mouth. When he opened his little mouth, two half-grown front teeth could be seen. They looked like small grains of rice.
Of course, the toy cart was a little big and couldn't be stuffed into it. However, he could gnaw on it. For example, he could gnaw on a tire!
When Xi Xi saw this, she quickly pulled her little brother's hand and shouted, "No, you can't put it in your mouth!"
Tong Tong's little hand was held down, so he couldn't gnaw on the toy cart. He immediately pouted his little mouth and looked at his mother.
"Big sister is right. You can't put the toy in your mouth! Mommy also told you that you can't! "Murphy smiled and shook her right index finger at Tong Tong. Tong Tong could understand this gesture.
He would definitely feel wronged, but Murphy still insisted on teaching him some things that he shouldn't do.
This wasn't just because these actions weren't good. Murphy also taught him this because at the infant stage, Tong Tong's ability to suppress his desires was limited. If he didn't learn how to suppress his desires, he would develop a willful personality in the future!
