Kids Art Journal - I Haven't Failed
I discovered art journaling in December and have really enjoyed learning about it. I love that it's a no-stress, make-a-mess, anything-goes type of art. Even better, it's a great way to spend time with my older kids and help encourage a growth mindset.
I found a perfect quote from Thomas Edison when he was trying to invent the light bulb. I printed some pictures of Edison's sketches and patent for the light bulb and discussed the quote with my kids. Then we hand tore the paper and glued it to our Dylusions journals. The light bulb is illuminated with a yellow Faber Castell gel crayon - it's so smooth and creamy and bright!
My journal page. I covered up the torn paper with gesso, which my kids opted not to do.
