Open-Ended Art: Yellow & Crayons (II)

I thought of not posting since we did this the previous week on 20 August (I misread the theme...) and the subsequent one we did on Thursday (27 August) was not very successful. However, I guess I wanted some sort of closure for the Open-ended Art (August). I think it would be tough to participate in September's themes because Sophie is too young to do mosaic (maybe modified version).

Anyway, Sophie was not in her best today... Sophie is quite obsessed with Hi-5 nowadays and she has just realised she can create the Hi-5 logo by drawing around her hands. However, she lacks the motor skills to do it properly so she wants me to do it for her. Clearly, she lost whatever little bit of interest she had left soon after. And that kind of explains the video...

End Product

I guess she prefers paint and markers to crayons because the colours are much duller or lighter. I bet she would like oil pastels better but I do not want to try washing that off her clothes or the dining table. So we would stick to crayons for now.

    This video is very cute (even though I watched it from work without sound :)). It's fun to try to introduce something new to little ones, and I hope that Sophie can still participate in collages.

    It is amazing how many kids do not like crayons, my little one was not interested in them as well. Her drawing was cute though :)
