Rocks in my head

I am in the middle of so many big jobs that take for ages. So I thought I would do a quick little project today. I found this bag of rocks at the back of the shed and decided that the Littlest Man would love them.

 As the Littlest Man is starting to learn his alphabet I thought I would write each letter of the alphabet on the rocks. I used a permanent marker to mark them. I would have rocks in my head if I spent ages on them as the Littlest Man will have them spread around the yard in record time. So I did very basic letters. If I was making them for an older child I would have done something fancy.

The Littlest Man played with them for a while and named the letters. Then he decided that they make good musical instruments and kept banging them together. I have already found a few stray ones in the pot plants.

Edit - I am coming back looking at my old posts and realised that I have no idea where these rocks are now. I haven't seen the bucket or any of the rocks in a very long time. It is a complete mystery. In fact I had completely forgotten I had made them until I saw the photos again. I think it is time to do another shed clean up and hopefully they turn up.
