ARTS AND CRAFTS

Tyler has become quite the little Artiste these days. He always used to get a coloring assignment at church or preschool and he would just scribble all over it with one color. Then all of a sudden, one day he realized you could use different colors, stay in the lines, and create things. He has been very diligent in his projects ever since. He is actually quite OCD about being allowed to finish, and about being able to do it right- wonder where he gets that from? I often catch him at the daycare at the gym working really hard on a picture for mom or dad.

For preschool, whenever he has a take home project, I let him do the whole thing himself and it's so fun to see what creations he comes up with. He was to decorate a pumpkin last fall, and of course, he made a hockey playing pumpkin. His wasn't the "most perfect" (parent made) pumpkin, but it was my FAVORITE! The little puzzle looking picture he is pointing at, is actually a globe, and he's pointing to where he will be going on a mission. The flower drawing was the first drawing he made really specifically for me, and took so much time to make sure it was perfect. I LOVED it.
