Every Child is an Artist

My breakfast room table turned into the boys' art studio yesterday. While I was working on a project for Henry's class, they got out the paper, glue, scissors, crayons, and markers.
And started creating.
If you look closely there is a smiley face on this paper.
And Henry was so proud of the way he shaded this paper by rubbing a crayon on it.
Henry's masterpiece.
It is a man with a bamboo fishing pole who just caught a HUGE catfish:)
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. Pablo Picasso

  10. Great projects! Isn't it so hard to not keep every single thing they creat. My living room has a wall that they can tape anything they want to it. It makes my living room look a little well messy sometimes but ehhhh oh well. :)

  17. Hi! I'm visiting from New Friend Friday! I also have 3 man-children. I LOVE the candy sushi idea. I think we'll have to study Japan so we can make it. :)
