One of the things that I imagined I would do when I was a mother was create with my child. Unrestricted, without lines or rules art. Just exploring colors and texture and shapes. I love the therapeutic process art can be and I want my children to know that it is a great way to deal with emotions, but ya gotta start ’em young.
I was fortunate enough to come across a great natural paint set at a local store and I have been really happy with them. They are naturally non-toxic and I can understand all the ingredient on the label. Max likes them too. Especially in his mouth.
This was the first time I really sat down with him to create and I loved every minute of it. I love how curious he was about the paint and watching him discover how he could manipulate it. Art is extremely important to me. I have found so much joy and peace from it. Music has touched my heart, painting have inspired my soul, and musicals have brought me so much joy and laughter over the years.
Our world needs art. Where science and knowledge are the mind and logic of the earth, art is the soul. It gives life and breath to us.
I so agree with you on this! What is the brand of that paint? Max is so adorable 🙂
The brand is clementine paint. I checked and you can get them on amazon! : )
Awesome! Thank you! 🙂
