On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I post a picture and just a few words.
One of Zoe’s summer pastimes: art at the table with a drawing tutorial on the tablet and a favorite Pandora station playing through her earbuds.
(Why yes, she IS a bit of an introvert. How did you guess??)

We only JUST got a tablet (and the kids are rather young to use it on their own) so I got some "how to draw" books from the library and have pulled up you tube videos, too. Such a good downtime activity!

This reminds me of me as a kid - minus the pandora and tablet :-). I used to spend a lot of time recreating art projects I learned in school. I was likely listening to one of many mixed tapes I recorded on my boom box straight from the radio, haha.

"Coloring" was one of my absolute favorite pastimes as a child, so I made sure my own kids always had crayons, paper, fun scissors, play-doh...and usually I had classical music going as well. Did you know they sell coloring books with all sorts of patterns for us older kids? Still a favorite thing to do!

Yes! A friend of mind just gave one of those to my kids...it has fancy circular patterns that you can color in.
