Many months ago I pinned this great blog called
Hodgepodge. I pinned it because it had wonderful art lessons in acrylics and chalk pastels. The chalk pastels really struck a cord with me and we have been able to focus a few of our lessons on this creative pursuit. All you need to do is look at
this blog post, pick your lessons, get some chalk pastels and some drawing paper.
We have had such a great time drawing and blending. I am amazed at what is possible with some easy lessons and a few good supplies. We started with Angry Birds, I thought that would grab their attention right away.

B is 4 years old, I drew the bird and he did the coloring and finger smearing.

We also tried our hand at blueberries.
And a slice of watermelon.
Next we are going to try our hand at nature drawings with Thoreau in the woods.
It's
Montessori Monday and I'm linking up.
