Home School Art Show

Grins
Yankee Doodle and Trees In Winter
Ribbon Grins
Flowers in Spring Kirigami
Trees in Winter

We had an exciting of evening at the SHARE art show last night. The big kids each entered 2 projects and family/friends were there to celebrate with us.
Jasper made a paper "Yankee Doodle" with various materials. And he won third place for "Trees in Winter". He did this piece for an SCCS project. They used ink on paper and blew the tree designs on with a straw.
Tullaia also did "Trees in Winter" and won Honorable Mention for her kirigami (a variation of origami that includes cutting) piece "Flowers In Spring". She also won the Children's choice awards for this one, when all the kids that participate get to vote for their favorites.
The women who organized the show did an excellent job with everything and it was very special for the kids.
SHARE has been an excellent home school resource.

How wonderful to share all those moments with your children... :)

I, too, spent all my waking hours devoted to mine, and we did lots of expressive arts together, too :)
