Painting!

Monday morning my plan was to make fancy invitations for our upcoming party and performance.

Nora said, "Ella I NEED to paint." There went my plans.

It worked really well for the children to paint one at a time. We used a large pallet with the primary colors. I didn't say much about it, just let them experiment with mixing and putting it on the page. Later we noticed and named all the colors on each painting.

We made simple little invites and raced the cars across the kitchen floor while waiting for a turn to paint.
