Easter coming

With Easter just round the corner we have started making baskets to collect eggs in with the older group. The Tuesday group make their own butterflies with paint, crayon and collage. This week was cut a bit short as Wednesday was a public holiday but hopefully next week we will have time to make all our Easter pieces !

The younger children this week made indian head bands and face paintings using their fingers. I am teaching them the different parts of the face so after covering this topic last week as well they can now recognize the names.
The older boys got to make their own ships using recycled materials.

A New Year

2010 Art en Casa has really taken off with 3 out of the 4 classes being filled to maximum.
I have been busy running around organizing the new classes, thinking up art projects and meeting with parents and students. Now after over a week of classes and having hired an assistant I am beginning to find a good rhythm and am able to really enjoy getting to know the new students and seeing how creative and hard working they all are.
Welcome to all of you who have joined this year, I know that we are going to have a really great time and produce some wonderful things.
