Learning about Color with Shaving Cream

 

Everyone enjoying shaving cream at our Colors class

From guest blogger Christy, our director of marketing:

 

Spent a fantastic hour with my toddler yesterday in the Scribblets Colors class. Made an amazing red painting for her book. Can’t wait to show it off to the family! Read a great book, sang songs….and, best of all, learned about colors by dropping watercolors into mounds of shaving cream and using our hands to mix it! The moms had a blast, the kids were laughing….everyone was smiling and everyone left in a little bit of a brighter mood! What a way to start the day! That’s what it’s all about!

 

This is what art class is all about!

From some other parents:

“I love the format and pace of this class.  The kids are entertained the whole time.  My son can’t wait to go back every week.” – Darrin, mom of 2-year-old boy

“My daughter came home and said to her brothers: “do you guys know who Van Gogh is, because I DO!” – Jennifer, mom of kindergarten girl

POP ART Classes for Spring Break

This week kids studied Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, Claes Oldenburg and Keith Haring with teacher Adam Davis and created their own pop art pieces, which were captured in a book.

You can do your own Warhol portrait at home – print the same black and white photo in 4 squares, at high contrast, and have your child color each one differently.

We love the idea of using known artists as a jumping-off point to develop creativity and skill.

And the kids had a great time!
