We are back into the swing of our art days now, which is lovely. This week we went for some simple drawing projects from Art Projects for Kids which makes for nice easy stuff to do.
With Zoe and the girls we did two types of pumpkin picture, one with wax crayons and one with watercolours.
The thing that amazes me most these days is how hard it is to see which is Josie’s one. On the bottom one, it isn’t the one you might expect.
At home we did these cat pictures today.
Amelie and Fran (who was home for the afternoon and has to be home educated then 😉 ) found it hard to follow the brief 😆 Josie did the bottom left one with no help at all; Maddy’s is top right.
I read Story of the World to them while they did these; it was lovely 🙂
There is a picture to follow of some cat portraits when I find them. I’ve tidied. Never a good idea.
EDIT: They lost them. I made them do them again. Live to blog or blog to live? 😉
