Kid Art Gallery!!!

The end of school hit and we had an abundance of awesome art that came home!
What to do with it all?....
Our laundry room at home has turned into a gallery that is easily changed out by the artists themselves because we use clipboards!


Happy Summer Everyone!
Looking forward to some outdoor art!

Rain, Rain.....

With the rain that we have had the last several days it seemed like a great time create a rainy garden scene by blowing watercolor across the page with straws to illustrate the rain and the stems of the flowers.
The kids had a great time using straws. It's trickier than one might think to blow paint across the page!

Mini Spring Greenhouses!

Inside this little greenhouse is a "magic" bean! After the kids created them we hung them in them in the class windows. Some are beginning to sprout already! After the very long winter (that everyone is tired of talking about) it's fun to see a little growing project happening inside while the trees are blooming simultaneously outside!

More Color Experimentation!

Starting with a tray of primary colors, the kids made secondary colors and created a vase a flowers!
Each painting is so unique! They are shining in the halls!
