MIRROR ART

This is one fun activity we all love. The boys love it because it is fun and colorful and they can be as creative as they want. And I love it because it's not messy at all. All the boys have to do is press the watercolors out of the tubes straight onto the paper. No water, brushes, no fuss. Nikki loves it because it doesn't get his hands dirty (he is very obssessive-compulsive although sometimes he does get some paint on his fingers and he would rush to the bathroom to wash his hands). Ethan loves it because well, it's art and Ethan is very artistic. The boys love the surprise that comes after they press the paper down. We were supposed to do only 4, but Ethan wanted more. So we did 6. And then we ran out of water colors. =D


Here is Nikki with their second art work. (Wasn't able to take a photo of the first one.)

















Nikki shows me their next work while Ethan gets the watercolors ready.












Ethan loved this one. After he opened it, he cooed, "wooooooooow!"











The brothers check out their final work while Ethan makes some comments.













Their beautiful artworks. =D
