Kids Craft: Kid’s (Keepsake) Art
In the meantime, the children got arty – total free reign!
The kids were dressed in their oldest clothes possible and then we gave them free rain with an assortment of brushes. Occassionally, we would ask “would you like another colour?” or “fancy making some spots”… but they did as they pleased. And were SO proud! And so was I
So. They painted.
It was interesting to see how differently Red Ted painted from about two years ago. This time, he was very specific – adding blue for the sky with the roller… wanting to draw a person (but then deciding against it) and adding the green without mixing it up! Pip Squeak really enjoyed adding little bits of wood (which they were supposed to paint with) and making sure they really stuck on. As well as creating dots with one of the foam brushes. Our friend’s girls had a great time painting BOTH sides of the canvas.. and I love all the red and purple tones coming together.
2) They proudly displayed (which says it all really!).
Pip Squeak’s and Red Ted’s.
3) I am proud! They are now hanging in the hall way with the other two paintings! The only dilemma we have now, is that Red Ted wants his painting in his room.. and ahem, I want it in the hallway. Maybe we can take turns?
Here are the previous ones!
Come check out how much the kids have grown and see Pip Squeak painting aged 10 months!
