Lately Cal has been full of questions that are usually along the lines of, "Does God make us alive?" Yesterday he wanted to know all about his cooperative preschool experience (a preschool he attended a couple of hours each week with me when he was one and two), in an effort to remember it. He wanted to know what he liked to do; I explained that he spent the majority of the time painting at the easel when it was available, and making crafts, if one was set up to do.
He continues to love creative projects at school and home. Cal's preschool class has been working on this fun project all week - making a rainbow garden of flowers, a different color every day.

those have to be some of the sweetest blooms this spring! and I understand what you mean about being inspired to live life more creatively by your little one :)
I love the a child can teach such a great life lesson. I too need to live life more creatively. Thanks for your wisdom.
I love the pride that our little ones show after creating. We have a special someone arriving today for a few days of fun and being creative. Stop by and see!
Love his little hands.
The flowers are beautiful. I love how Cal is thinking about the world.
what a creative and thoughtful young boy! beautiful artwork!

I listen to Craft Cast, and the woman who conducts the interviews for it frequently finds that artists are living the same life that they lived at 8. (She herself was working on and loving the communications badge for the Girl Scouts.) The things we love when we are little really do make us who we are!
How great is this that he already loves art!!!
i LOVE it!

Lecia, such an inspiring post today! (As always, really...) My youngest loves to paint and craft with me - I've been inspired to make some flowers with her today!
yay! creative kids make me so happy. i hope he can foster his creativity throughout his life.
Without the burden of stress, etc. children express their creativity so magnificently! As we grow older and accumulate more "stuff" literally and figuratively, this ability sadly diminishes. Lovely garden!! xoxo
Children ask the greatest questions! And create such beautiful works of art!
I love Cal's garden of beautiful flowers he has created especially the feather flower. xoxo
It's amazing how inspirational a child can be. The are the best source to get a creative spark going.
Love his garden!
Great great great! I love these kind of things :)
