Artsy Thursday!

 We ended Week of the Young Child with Artsy Thursday! Today was so great to spend outside and create a more nature related art project. Before heading outside though, W took some time at the playdoh table to create some stacked playdoh balls. Very artsy!

How could they make a propeller? What does a propeller look like? The kids got to work on some research about wh...
