This year my daughter received fun foil art from a relative. She, like a lot of kids, likes art. When she got this gift, she was curious and a bit skeptical and yet once she opened it she quickly fell in love. She could not stop creating fun and amazing art with her fun foil art. She was humming and designing shiny bright fun foil art for hours on end.
It's been six days since she received it and has played with it every day, she just asked me if I had seen it anywhere before and if I knew were we could get more when this was done. This gift is running a close second or tied for first with her new iPod touch generation. That is saying a lot.
Her older sister was in awe of the quiet hours her once loud and pesky sister was spending on her new found art and has even joined in on the fun. Oh how nice to watch them playing quietly and peacefully together.
Chat about art activities for kids.
Derdriu, Good assessment of art and its impact.
katiem2, It's educational fun since art makes its creators observant and savvy about color, shape and texture relationships that work, don't or might. It's always esteem-building fun, too, for kids to see that their activities make a difference, even if it's "just" personalizing their space.
CherylsArt, It is a lot of fun. Given Art is in your name I'm assuming you're a fellow art lover as are Brenda and I. :)
I agree with Brenda. Foil art looks like fun for kids of all ages. Creating art was one of my favorite projects as a kid, and still is.
Brenda, It is a lot of fun, the time flies when playing with this. Plus it's a toy or activity that doesn't cost a lot. :)
This looks like something I'd also enjoying playing with.
