Art Show 2014


 The boys' preschool hosted its annual Art Show last night. The teachers work so hard to come up with great art projects for the kids, following different curricular approaches while also making sure the kids are enjoying the process.

Jack's classroom adopted two hermit crabs earlier this year so many of their projects have involved learning about crabs and building their own "crab-itats".  Jack named his crab "Control Train," a reference to our electric train set.
 The second piece from Jack is a watercolor-glue-salt multimedia project they worked on last summer.



Ryan's first featured piece was a beautiful string art heart.
 

He also contributed to the coffee filter heart mobile. As grown-up as he looks above, you can still see a little trace of chubby toddler in those elbow dimples!  
His teacher Anita also displayed a book featuring pictures a monster-themed project they worked on last fall.
Of course, Ryan and Jack's favorite part of the evening were the hors d'oeuvres.  Ryan ate about five pieces of celery while another little boy at the table devoured a kale salad.
