Little Hands for April...

   


Today we had our April "Little Hands" Art meeting... It was so much fun... Michelle had a wonderful lesson... She taught the kidlets about cave art and early man and their use of their environment to express themselves and detail their lives in story by the use of pictures, petroglyphs, pictographs, rock art, and engraved boulders. She also discussed the use of color and different mediums available to early man, like feathers, charcoal, berry ink etc...


She placed 4 tables end to end in a square to resemble a "cave" and placed brown paper on them for the kids to "tell their story" in pictures using brown, burgundy, and black crayons... It was great.. the kidlets had a great time and I think it will be something we do again soon...
