# 6: Art Projects

This is one of the things we will be doing a lot of this summer.
My kids LOVE to do art projects.
They love for me to have an organized project,
and they love to do things on their own.
The art project that I decided to post was making masks.
The kids did such a good job!!
First they all decided on what kind of animal they wanted.
Then they decided what color paint they wanted for it's face.
We used paper plates, construction paper, glitter, pipe cleaners, and paint.

Zach quickly decided on a fish, using purple; his favorite color.
Riley chose blue, of course, and then decided on a dragon.
(After he decided that a blue lion would be silly.)
Lily wanted pink.
She didn't care what animal it was, as long as it was pink.
The boys shouted out lots of animals, until Lily finally settled on an elephant.
(I told her elephants were gray, but she didn't care.) =)

Here are their finished masks!!

Even though we checked art projects off of our list, we will be doing LOTS more throughout the summer!
