Street Art

In the ongoing effort to keep the kids off of the couch as much as possible this summer we tried Art in the Street this morning.  Every week on a street corner somewhere in Woodbury the arts council does a different project, and the theme for all of the projects this summer is nature.  They had a great turn out, and Emily and her friend had a good time making under the sea drawings, a treasure box, and water color sea animals on rice paper.

The best part (according to me) was at the end everyone got ice pops, and the local library spread out a hundred children's books for the kids to pick from and take home.  Free art, free pops, free books...we loved it!
Looking for something to do next Monday or Tuesday for a couple of hours...check it out!  The website says ages 7-12, but the woman in charge told me it would be fine to bring my almost six year old.
