Art Projects

Over the past few weeks we've been having fun with color! Oliver got this cool bird feeder for his birthday and painted it himself, and Nich finally had the chance to hang it up this weekend!


Printmaking with Tempera Paint and a cookie sheet (and fingers...maybe the best part!)

And Ian with ketchup and mustard!

And Oliver really getting into it! (He ended up with brown paint all the way up his arms, shoulders and onto his neck...definitely needed a bath after that one!)

The results! (The top left two are Ian's masterpieces)

And what happens when you mix colored vinegar with baking soda? Fizzle-y craters!! He seriously did this for a good hour, and then we dumped the cups of vinegar in for a huge foamy fizz!

And Ian can climb! This is what he does in his down time. Here, and the fireplace, and the rocking horse, and today on the bars on the playground...just about gave me a heart attack to see him 4 feet up on just bars with 24" spaces between them! Teach ME to help Oliver across monkey bars while Ian's fiddling around on the playground, sheesh! :D
