Painting outdoors

7 Aug

The simple act of painting can take on new life, can be new and exciting, all by bringing the paints outdoors.  Pull out the paintbrushes, the paints, paper and even an easel…then let the kids enjoy painting.

This simple change of location can inspire and invigorate your kids.  Honest.

{My kids had long ago gotten bored with painting, but were ecstatic with the idea of painting outside}.

The outdoors can inspire your children’s art, or just be a nice change of scenery.

Either way, its a fun {and easy} option.

    they’re so cute.
    It’s fun to paint outside – except when you have to paint the house.
    We noticed Silas’ mud covered pants and boots – and knew that Silas had been digging: construction art.
    Also notice Sydney’s cute pink popi shoes, and the hint of curly hair.
    Hugs and Kisses
