The weather is hot and humid – the threat of a thunder storm never far away!
We were trapped inside by sudden downpours a couple of times last week, so out came the art supplies.
For the first time, the wee girl really joined in :)
She sat on a stool, just like her brothers. She drew with crayons, just like her brothers.
It was one of those perfect moments.

On another rainy morning, the 7yo asked to paint. He sat quietly for ages, completely absorbed.
No TV, no computer, no iPad or Kindle.
Just quiet concentration and creativity. Wonderful.





What a lovely post, must have been great to see them get stuck in :)
Thank you! It was lovely to watch them all focused (and quiet!) :)
Sometimes it is the rainy days that give us so much quiet joy….I must keep reminding myself of this! Love the pictures..looks very calm….somehow our painting sessions always get a bit frought!
It was surprisingly calm, it’s not always like that! I have a messy play post going up today that was less calm :)
You’re so crafty with your children- you put me to shame! I never did anything like this when my two boys were at that age!
Well, I never used to be… I sort of feel I should now that I’m not working… But, I have to say, (most of the time!) I really enjoy it :)
