I am enjoying the fact that we all can do this together, including Nanny, and her home care worker.
We had gotten into some fairly complex drawing, using the step-by-step method recommended by Monart.

We also played with watercolors and oil pastels, which was fun.
However, I found that E (3yrs) was acting a bit defeatist about the whole drawing thing, so I stepped back to try easier pictures. Here is a recent caterpillar; first K's, then E's.
It has been such a pleasure to do this together.
If you look closely, you will see that the caterpillar is smiling.
I am so impressed! We are starting with Monart again this term...hope I get farther than last time. :)

ReplyDeleteIf you don't find yourself getting anywhere, find the level where everyone is enjoying it and stay there. We are staying in the step by step drawing spot for a while yet; I think she recommends that until age 7. There is so much available to do. Your kids probably like cars and stuff, right? Mine love flowers, butterflies, presents, and people.
