SKETCHBOOK CHALLENGE
Inspired by all the drawing/ sketchbook challenges on Tumblr, I thought it would be fun to do with kids. This can be like a weekly virtual refrigerator (no magnets necessary!) Whether representational, realistic or just scribbles inspired by the theme, comment below with the pics and I'll post them all the following week. Instead of thinking of these entries as needing to be our child's finest work, think of it as a fun way to showcase their progress and a great way to get kids drawing! And afterwards, we'll have a groovy keepsake sketchbook of their work. (This may also be fun to release the budding artist inside all us parents and to participate with a sketchbook of our own.)
Here's a cool article by Early Childhood News that explains the different stages of drawing from toddlerhood to primary school age.
The first theme will be "Yourself." So, get out the crayons, pencils, and (most importantly) a special sketchbook. Send them in and I'll post them on Tuesday.
