Based on a true story, of love for my God, my world, and my man and the seven children we're working on, too.

A Creating Image


A friend of mine on the Sonlight forums mentioned Art Every Day Month.

It seemed like fun, so we're trying it. I know you're on the edge of your seats, so I'll try to update regularly on our progress.

Today, my little artists made their daily foray into the manila paper and crayons, markers and colored pencils. By the end of the month my hope would be that we see more diversity in their creativity.

I picked up books from the public library to explore, Linnea in Monet's Garden, What makes a Rembrandt a Rembrandt, and more. I am looking for field trips as well- this won't be hard, we've been really lacking in this type of field trip. It was overwhelming to even think of taking a bunch of little kids to art museums. But now they are all getting bigger.....

Very cool!! Can't wait to see the progress.

I'm off to find the thread - because sadly, Art is right up there with Science in the realm of 'lacking' in our homeschool. Something about the mess and the fact that I love to look at it but creating it?? Egads. Acckk....

I'm giving this one a try, too. So far, so good. Then again, it's only Nov. 4. :-)
