Good evening!
I believe that the arts - visual art, music and drama are so important for the growth of our children, but art is not something that comes easily to me. I love to knit and crochet but have difficulty putting colours together and I've never really made friends with a paintbrush. I wanted to be sure to include some art learning in our homeschool routine.
Thankfully Pinterest is a treasure trove not only for creative ideas for kids but FREE creative lessons! Homeschooling through Covid on a budget means free is a wonderful thing! I came across wonderful sites full of art lessons for elementary and middle school ages!
Using 12 by 18 inch watercolour paper and oil pastels, here are OUR finished pieces!
I loved how my girls chose to personalize their lollies - Sammy added a rabbit and a mantis and Krista drew a cat and a fish! (My drawing is pretty run of the mill. ;). ). If you would like to try this art project or you are looking for some art ideas be sure to check out Create Art with ME
Have a colourful weekend!
