Open Ended Art: Blue B's and Fall Colors

We are learning about the letter B this week. At first I thought we would make some cute little bees. Then I remembered how the boys have been resisting my art projects lately. I asked them if they wanted to paint on the easel and they both answered with a resounding "Yes!" I wrote the letter Bb and then let them take turns painting with blue paint.

Jax had so much fun in fact that he decided to paint a few other things like the wall and a few toys. I discovered him before it got out of hand, so it wasn't too bad.

Since they were really enjoying themselves I decided to go with it and let them paint a little more. I laid out red and yellow paint, paper, and pumpkin and leaves cookie cutters.

They painted until their little hearts were content.
