I got a pack of oil pastels as a birthday gift from my Grandaddy, and Asher and I have been dabbling with them for the past few days. Let me just say that these pastels blow the socks off of crayons and colored pencils and even finger paint. They're so vibrant and creamy and easy to work with. I want to frame every single drawing Asher has done! They require a little more supervision {plus a bath afterwards} but they're well worth it. I enjoy using them just as much as him, and so it's a really nice little morning activity to do together while I sip on my coffee. I may not have the time for oil painting right now, but this is a pretty nice alternative...
What simple activities are you guys doing with your kids these days?
P.S. Can't help but think back to our ABC Cutouts with Asher's fingerpaint art...still need to frame those, too!
