Artsy Thursday AM class

We started the day reading the Eric Carle book, The Artist Who Painted A Blue Horse. If you haven't read this book, it is based on thinking outside of the box - none of the animals are "painted" in the color you would expect....yellow cow, red crocodile, orange elephant, polka-doted donkey, etc.  
Our day was full of artsy activities - easel painting outside, bubble art and tracing stencils, which they colored in different ways based on the book we read during circle. Busy, busy day!!

BUBBLE ART - First you blow bubbles

                                       

Then you lay a paper on top.
The bubbles pop and form really cool, pastel designs on the paper.

  

Easel painting out of doors.....ahhhh, so relaxing!

and more bubbles.....

Ms. Kaylah came to help since Ms. Sarah had to leave early. The children swarmed her and wanted to play with her. It was sweet - I think she felt loved. 

It's a good thing I put towels down to soak up all of the
watery mess from the bubbles. :)
