Montessori education information from a Montessori teacher and Mom. Personal art work and journal entries about my life as a busy Mom of three sons ranging in age from 7 years to 21 years. My hope: To create a place where parenting questions can be answered and conversations as well as ideas shared.

Water Color Magic
Find yourself needing 15 minutes of time? Set down this 'magic' tray in front of your child and 15 minutes you shall have! No child I've met can resist making watercolor pictures.
Materials needed:
1/4 sheet of water color paper
a pencil (to write their name)
a set of water color paints
a sponge for easy clean up
small jar for water
Mix it up a bit by adding a subject matter for the older child, perhaps a book on Vincent Van Gogh and a vase of sunflowers to paint? Be creative, enjoy your budding artist and if time allows pick up the brush and paint a picture yourself.
In peace~~MM
