I don't really consider myself an artistically inclined person, but I know how much my kids love doing art projects. So I'm trying to make a huge effort to do art with them more often. I've actually purchased an art curriculum to use, but it's not officially here yet.. Anyway, I won't say I teach them any techniques considering I'm not sure I'd know if I know any myself. Instead I just flag ideas as I spot them, mostly from Art Projects For Kids. Then when we have a day where things aren't too crazy I just select one, round up the supplies & the kids. When we did the ladybird art project last week it was the same thing. I didn't want to do a painting project because honestly I wasn't up for the mess on that particular day. Truthfully the guys are good about helping clean it up, but because some of us take longer on projects then others it can also mean wrangling them back in. I wanted to keep it simple. That's why I selected a project that was basically cut & paste. I had, believe it or not, forgotten that Jayden hates glue. He often refers to it as his worst enemy with all sincerity. He actually didn't mind working on this project, all though he did make his typical glue statement about halfway through the project, but then piped up with, "But it's okay Mom, I don't mind this!" Our projects were derived from this idea. Which APFK had flagged on Pinterest, & thus I'd seen it. How's that for a round-about way of getting a project to use with your kids? Thus there were no specific directions on how to do the project so we just went with it. All of ours turned out different & everyone was pleased with how they turned out which makes it a pretty big win-win around here! Incase you're wondering we just random strips from three different colours of green paper. We pulled out some dirt & sand coloured brown paper & cut waves into them. We used a large round punch for the ladybirds. We glued it all down as we desired on heavier sheets of white paper. The details on the bugs was done with black marker. We mounted them on natural paper & then Morgan thought it would be cool to make it look properly mounted so I cut some black corners out for everyone. Morgan's is on top, Jayden's is bottom left, mine is bottom right. Share:facebook - twitter - pinterest Ladybird Art

The start of spring and the windy weather we have been having always makes me think of Kites. We don’t usually have much luck when we try to fly our own kites, but we have had fun crafting some very pretty ones. When Emily was little we make a Triangle Shape Kite, but this time we tried something a little different. To make our kites we used Bleeding Tissue Paper, cardstock, straws, yarn and some colored construction paper. The girls always love working with bleeding tissue paper, it has a somewhat magical property to it which is always fun. If you have never tired it before we definitely recommend it. First, I cut out cardstock in the shape of a Kite and then Juliette got to work with the bleeding tissue paper. She covered the paper with a little bit of water then placed the pieces of bleeding tissue paper over the water. They like to brush over them with a little more water to make sure they are sticking down to the paper well. Once the paper is covered to satisfaction we just set them to the side and let them dry. Now for the fun part, Juliette pulled off all of the bleeder paper to see the beautiful colored design that was left behind…MAGIC!!! To put the kites together we cut pieces of colored straws to glue horizontally and vertically across the kite. Then we glued on a long piece of yarn and construction paper bows for the tail. Juliette was very excited to help me glue it together with the glue gun. Since we have had a hard time gluing straws to paper in the past I figured this would be the best way. For another windy day project check out the Windsock Craft we made to go with the book The Wind Blew. Follow our ADVENTURES on Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter!

Roy Lichtenstein is one of my favorite artists. His work is bright, bold, graphic, and thought provoking. We were visiting Chicago a couple of years ago, and as luck would have it, we were there during an AMAZING Lichtenstein retrospective at the Art Institute of Chicago . (Side note: if y
