Our first day ....

OUR FIRST TIME TOGETHER WAS A HIT AND A LOVELY BUNCH OF MOMS AND KIDS ALL COME TOGETHER FOR A BIT OF CRAZY BUT LOVELY MORNING OF ART. The kids got to choose their own little characters/people from print outs {ie, skateboarder, a farmer, a kid with overalls, a scooter dude, princess, a baker or a chief, a little girl with skipping rope etc etc etc} and they then had the choice of colouring pencils, or painting, or glueing bits of material, or cut out colour cardboard or with good old fashion crayons and felt tips, to cover their printed out person and give the picture a 3D look, cut that out and glued it onto a lager size paper.... they then added their favourite animals and a back ground to their master pieces like fluffy clouds, air-planes, flowers, birds in the sky, butterfly's, a house, a car or some chose to add all their family members instead and made a family portrait  ...... After a bit of mess, they dove into morning tea and then off to play at their own leisure.  {i promise the next one to be more messier lol} The moms got a coffee and a chat in and the kids got to play and watch a movie. {the movie wasn't qite what we had planned but none the less the kids had fun! and next time, we will hide the remotes lol.}

WAS A GOOD MORNING. 

This is extra painting that some of the kids wanted to do, instead of the above. 

 pretty good for a 4 year old.

 Our art trolley filled with some of the things we used on the day...

 Bits of material, that they used for clothing their cut-out people or used it for oceans or clouds...some children cut out the pictures on the material and added them to their back grounds.

 Bits of colour paper, tissue, wool, that some of the kids used in their pictures.

 Our art trolley, loaded with colouring pencils, felts, crayons, scissors, glue, colour paper, tissue, cushion insert/fluff, pretty material, etc etc.

Example of of a cut-out person that they added to their creations and the little family members that some added to make portrait's.


I WOULD HAVE OF HAD MUCH MORE PICS, BUT BECAUSE THIS IS A PUBLIC BLOG AND MOST OF MY PICS HAD CHILDREN WHO ARE NOT MY OWN, I WILL NOT POST THEM WITH OUT PERMISSION .... but next time, ill just take pics of their art work (and them with their art work) but so i can post what the children are doing, they were so pretty and nice... next time ill make sure no children are in the pics.
