Winter days are great for art! The snow is gone here, and the sun was shining, but the frigid 30 something temperature kept us indoors. Oh well, no matter. It is not hard for my little art lovers to find something to do. We broke out the soy and beeswax crayons today and they had blast. We colored some greeting cards to send to relatives too. On tomorrow’s agenda is lots of finger painting.
Pictured are Stockmar Beeswax Block Crayons, Prang Soy Crayons, Smencils, and Crayon Rocks.
For some inspiration check out my Eco Art Supplies for Children post and one of my favorite books, Young at Art.

When you posted about the crayon rocks and things before, we tried them out. Even my 13 yr old artist loves the crayon rocks. Last wk, I found your recipe for homemade play doh. My 21 mos old sat in her hi chair for over 2 hours and played with cookie cutters and safe playdoh. Occupied her while I shopped for natural diapers and homeschooled. I feel so green!! Thanks for your guidance!!! I am currently reading Unplugged Play. I found the recipe last night for fingerpaint. I was going to let them do that today too. Great activity for this yucky Midwest day.
Awww they look like they are having fun!! I really have to revamp our art supplies. Thank You for this as it has reminded me what I need to do.
