Elmer is no ordinary elephant and nor would he want to be. Elmer is a brightly coloured pathwork elephant with a cheeky sense of humour. Author David Mckee <\/a>wrote the Elmer the Elephant series <\/a>to help young children all over the world celebrate their own uniqueness.<\/p>\n

To celebrate Elmer’s special day I challenged my 3 kids to make their own patchwork Elmer using different coloured felt squares.<\/p>\n

Aged 4, 6 and 8 I love to set all three of my kids the same craft challenge and then sit back and watch them put their own unique stamp on it.<\/p>\n

A bit like Elmer, arts and crafts projects should not all be done in exactly the same way, each individual project should celebrate their creators individual talents and ideas.
