Today's Art Project

I wanted to make a birthday card for our friend's birthday, and get the paints out - which the kids love but takes a lot of time so we don't always do that. So I got paper, paints, brushes....Sylvie was already soaked from helping me "Do dishes" so I figured a few extra minutes down to Mermaid underwear could help with the paint cleanup.

Sylvie is my little artist. She spent a lot of time intently mixing, brushing, washing the brushes and did about 6 pictures all together. This one is my favorite of hers....

Then Logan got started and 4 minutes later, he was fussing with something else. So I look over to see his painting. This is his one picture of the day. Yes, it's yellow on yellow.

He came over to show me his other project- a silly putty egg. He started pointing out all the molding he had done. He said "This is our house. This is Daddy's room, mommy's room, Abby's bed, Sylvie's room, the Kitchen......" So my genius is a sculptor. Two dimensions is just toooooo easy for my Little Einstein!
