Our Little Artist

At least once a week at daycare, the babies will do an art project. If you are like I was when I first heard about this, you are probably wondering how in the world a 3 month old does an art project. :o) The idea behind it is to let them feel the paint when they stick their hands and feet in it, see all the colors on the page, etc. It really is a neat idea and, if nothing else, their mommies and daddies love it when they pick their baby up and she has a new painting or drawing in her bag. We've started a collection. Here's a few of her recent "pieces". :o) White baby footprints make ghosts; orange, yellow and brown handprints (smears) make pretty fall leaves on the tree; black handprints make Halloween bat wings and fingerprints make spiders' bodies; red scribbles to color the apples.
