This was featured in family fun magazine Oct 2008. I thought it was cute and that it might help the kids feel good about their school work. I went to Savers and bought frames (each was $2 or $3) I took them apart and spray painted them black. Roberts has little hooks specifically for something like this, but I just used silver clips from the office supply and attached them with silver wire to the nail.
Dallin's rainbow fish from first grade.
Emma's train and purple cow from preschool.
Last week we borrowed the picture book "The Dot" by Peter H. Renyolds. I love that book! Its about a little girl who feels that she can't draw during art class. Her teacher encourages her by saying just start with a single dot. She puts a dot on her paper then her teacher tells her to sign it. The next day at school she is supprised to se her picture framed behind her teachers desk! She gains confidence. I won't tell the ending of the book. It is great. Get it from the library. It is part of my inspiration for starting this blog and it made me feel great that I had taken the time and $ to frame my kids art.
