Kids Painting Class

Today (Saturday) I was woken up by the kids (sons, nieces and nephew) who were eager to start their day with the promised painting lesson. You see, I shipped in my nieces and nephew to my house for the weekend so that they could play together with my kids. I really had to plan what to do with them to keep them occupied since they are a rowdy lot when they get together. So, painting lesson was the plan. Last nite, the lesson started off with a theory class. Everybody, even Little Erina who is 3, attended. We learned about colours (primary, secondary, colour mixing), about painting tools and supports and about what they will plan to paint the next day. So this morning the practical class took place and they were really having fun (but it was messy!) and at the end of the class, each painting was given marks. I was happy too! (happy because I managed to get them to sit down and get busy even for an hour or so)...

The kids at the start of their lesson
The youngest in class...What is that Erina? "Barney..."

Enisa was the one who really wanted to learn how to paint...Inspired by your Auntie huh Enis? Hehehe
Hakim was the most diligent and creative
