There were lines and smudges of course, but teaching them to make dots was the most fun. And great practice for our next spring project, which I'll share soon. Inspired by our budding trees... and that's the only hint for now! (wink)

Cotton Swab Painting
Even though I've been teaching art for over ten years (yikes!) there are some things I've still not gotten around to. Or else I've done them so long ago I've forgotten all about them, which is a good possibility too. My kids are fascinated with cotton swabs- to the point that I've had to hide them away. So it was fun to give them the chance to paint with them, something I've been wanting to try. Since the cotton swabs are small and hard to grasp, they're excellent at building little hand muscles. And there are so many options for painting!
