Alexander's Grandma and Grandpa bought this easel for him while they were visiting. He loves it! It has a white board on one side and a chalkboard on the other. The Paper hangs over the chalkboard side. I know I am just bragging, but who doesn't when they have such a talented kid :D He loves to draw people the most. He draws D.W., Arthur (as seen above)or he draws his family (as seen below..)
He had Mark draw the shirt and pants on himself. He likes us to draw with him. He has a hard time with the shirt and pants so he usually just puts everyone in a dress, but he is getting better! Mark is always drawn with spiky hair, I always have long hair, Melody has a bow in her hair and Alex wears a hat!
here is a picture of me he drew this morning:
Besides drawing, Alexander likes to help me make things in the kitchen. Sometimes he will pull his chair in the kitchen and demand I make something by saying "I help you." Hard to resist! Mostly he just watches me and stirs the bowl every once in a while. Alex also loves to watch movies. I think if I let him he would spend half of his day just sitting in front of the tv! He loves to watch Arthur, Winnie the Pooh, Alvin and the Chipmunks and Cinderella! He also likes to go down slides and take walks! I probably read a dozen books to him each day and he enjoys going to the library to find new books though he is often sad he has to return ones that he likes. I love my little boy! I can't believe he will be 3 next month!
Great job Alex! I took art for 7 years....I may never have been as good as you ')
ReplyDeleteRobby loves Arthur a lot too. That's all he wants to read these days.
Too bad we live so far away. I think Robby and Alex would have a lot of fun together! Maybe some day.
