Hello dear Dtube-ians and Steemians! Welcome back to another episode of Exploring Interests with @littledrummerboy!

@littledrummerboy is still recovering so we are doing more daily activities at home. I was cutting my romaine to cook and was removing the stem. A thought came to me, looking the roses-alike stalks. Let's do self-made stampers!!!

He was a bit puzzled when I brought the stalks out to him. But after he got accustomed to it, he kept rushing me to cut off my vegetables the next day, just to let him have more stampers, hahaha! These type of stampers is for a one-time use only, as they are vegetables and they can wither to become really soft as they decay. @littledrummerboy loves them and whenever it gets too "dirty", he said, "Oh no, it's really dirty. Let me go and wash it, okay Mummy?" So, he actually washes his vegetable stamps from time to time, till they became too mushy.

He has doing quite a bit of stamping recently when I bought him a small little notebook and some really cheap stamps. He would be stamping them all over and ask us to have a look. "Look at my passport, Mummy!" A friend who is a very seasoned traveler was kidding with him saying, "Oh you have been to many places, some of which I have not seen or been!"

Let me include some photos of his artworks, which he calls them as his masterpieces. Yeah, that was the word he used, so I got shocked when I heard him saying it too, LOL.

Now, I really hope he can recover soonest from his cough. I am thankful that in this period, his appetite was not affected though he got a bit more clingy and did cry few times for no obvious reasons. He just needs more tender loving care.

You may also try this at home with young children, if you are interested. It is easy and it costs nothing, since it is the disposable part of your meals prep anyway. We can always have fresh ones for them everyday.

Thank you for watching and see you again on dtube soon!

What a brilliant idea @happycrazycon! I wish I would have known this when my kids were little. You're a very clever mom :) And I love that you have an account for the little guy too ... what a great place to store and highlight different things from his young life. So much better than the boxes of miscellaneous I'm going to pass off to my sons haha

Hahaha thanks for the encouraging and kind words. I was looking at them finding them looking very pretty and it would be a waste to throw lol. Hahah I'm sure your boxes of miscellaneous stuffs are precious too. I seldom post from his account, though. Haha too lazy to maintain two accounts :P

This is super duper awesome art and craft. Every household should make use of the stem and make art out of it. :) Thank you for sharing the fun time with us.

Hahaha yeah these stems are part of the food we cook anyway. I want to look for other varieties for different patterns lol. Carrots can be considered too.
