Now that the weather is getting a little bit warmer, it is fun to spend time outside. I spent some time drawing objects in my backyard.

Stay at Home Lesson #13: Draw Your Pet or the Pet You Want

Your pet can be a great inspiration and if you don't have a pet, you can draw a pet that you've always wanted.

Stay at Home Lesson #12: Brighten Someone's Day

Since we can't be close to all of our friends and relatives, a nice way to show our love is to create a card and send it to someone you love. You can use crayons, markers, pencils, and I even used papers to collage hearts.

Stay at Home Lesson # 10: Rainbows and Hearts

Let's spread some hope and love by making rainbows and hanging them in your windows. We also made hearts to say: "Thank you" to healthcare workers. We used watercolor to paint the rainbows and hearts. When they dried we cut them out and wrote thank you and other hopeful words before hanging them in the window. You can use any materials you want to make your rainbows and hearts.
