Do you let your Children Paint? I hope so. I was looking through all my photos and noticed pictures of easel paintings that C did when she was 3. I must of been obsessed....this was before The Chocolate Muffin Tree. I think I felt every mark that my daughter made was significant. Being an art teacher, I felt it was so important to have her paint and she loved it so much! I never told C what to paint....it was always a very open ended activity every time. As a 5 year old she hasn't done as much easel painting and maybe I need to break out the easel again and see what she might paint.
