My Budding Artist

Today, as planned, we did Apple prints. For all the mommies who thought, "Apple prints..??..??" This is what they are. You cut an Apple in half sideways not up and down. This creates a star in the center. Then choose your paint colors. I let Katie pick the colors today. She chose colors that compliment each other. We basically stamped apples all over the paper.

I taped the paper to the table and let her go. She would have done more, but we ran out a places to put wet painted paper.

It was not as messy as you may think.

I found this Pier 1 Imports frame at a yard sale a few months back. It has a slit in the back so I can easily change out her artwork. I think I will cut up the prints and make stationery for Katie. She can use it to send letters to her grandparents.

Tomorrow we are learning about Abraham not Adam. I just found more resources at the last minute. So can I be flexible? Of course! I also have to change my Friday plans. Instead of going to the Aquarium we will stay home and learn about Animals.
