Art

Our library trips have been getting better. By better I mean lately our choice of books have been fun, creative and full of ideas that we can try at home.  One such book is Bridget's Beret by Tom Lichtenheld.  Super cute and a great story to get kids involved in art. I loved the last pages that describe some famous artists and what their passion was to paint/cut/dot/draw.  I would highly recommend it!  Another book that is cute about art is Willow by Denise Nelson and Rosemary Brennan-Katie said tonight that she loves the Willow book. :)  

Katie, I love your desire to learn something and then immediately put it into action.  Way to go sweet girl!

Hello little Monet!  
Katie walked around the house until she found the perfect flower to draw. A red rose that Justin had given me last week.  :)
 studying the rose...look at the concentration.  And the glasses, got to have glasses to be a true artist! 
oh, cutie pie-we love you.
 the brown scribbles are Owens.  :)
 Ta Da!  She titled this, "Flowers make all the difference". 

 Owen's happy art work!
 The back of the book that teaches about famous artists.
 Another masterpiece
 ...and one more!

Derek looked at Katie's drawings and said "Katie should definitely go to kindergarten." All that to mean that she is great at drawing, not that we really think she should or should not go :)
