Create a Work of Art Together
Teaches: taking turns, being patient, concentration and working together
One member of the family creates a shape- square, rectangle, Cat face, Tree or even just a made-up scribble
The next family member has a choice to either add to the first shape OR color in the first shape
The picture will build as turns are taken and will be a wonderful piece of art that the family made together!
Options: Create a story as this picture builds or pick a theme for the picture, such as creating a perfect vacation spot for the whole family or create the world’s best amusement park!
