Art

I have been lamenting over buying an "art course" for the girls for a couple of years now. They have always loved to draw and do pretty well for their ages so I wanted to try and work on their skills. I've not yet been led to one by the Lord so we have not done anything serious when it comes to art. I did however find two Usborne drawing books at our local thrift shop (for .25 mind you!) and the girls have truly enjoyed going through them. Well, not just the girls!! I have really enjoyed them as well.

Here are some samples of their art work.

My art work!! ;)

Maybe we will just take a relaxed approach to drawing until they are a little older? Biggest Sis is 7 and Big Sis is 5. Rachel, if you see this tell me what your artistic mind would do!!! ;)

  1. Hi Krissy!
    I use Art With A Purpose by Myron and Rachel Weaver. It is used with the School of Tomorrow curriculum (ACE, or Paces) but can easily be used alone. I bought my kids' "Artpacs" on eBay for around $5 each. They're awesome!

    If you're interested I will scan some pages and email them to you so you can get an idea of what they're about.

    Have a great weekend!
