Have a beautiful day! :)

In the Art Box last week: scrap paper (including patterned paper, half a paper plate, construction paper scraps, tissue paper), some car pictures torn from a magazine, sponge, craft leaves, bubble wrap, glitter glue, glue in a bottle, gluestick, watercolors, foam stickers, paint brushes, scissors, flat piece of styrofoam, watercolor pencils, and tempera paints.I know this sounds like a lot of stuff. I just pick up whatever catches my eye when I’m going through my art and craft stashes. The truth is M was interested in very little of it this week. I thought it might be neat to paint on the styrofoam, but he just wanted to saw it up with his toy saw. :)
And he only wanted to pop the bubbles on the bubble wrap. After he popped all of them he did put some stickers on it for a funky collage:
I always get a laugh from how this kind of thing keeps him occupied… so I just let him keep at it.
He experimented a little bit with my watercolor pencils. He didn’t have great success with this, I’m wondering if I should get him some watercolor crayons. Do any of you have them? Here’s what he made with the pencils and a little water:
He was very into painting this week. He was producing one painting after another. Some were watercolors:
Some were tempera:
It’s a pill organizer. We take off the entire lid (instead of one section at a time), and M has this:
It’s perfect for his box. It has enough room for all the primary colors and an extra spot for white. He was very excited to see this.
