Drawing with watercolour

It had been quite some time since our last painting session. Should be at least 2-3 weeks ago...

Since the boys had early dinner and daddy will be home late, we could splashed up some colours and do some paintings.

Boys are very interested with colour mixing. They would happily request for 2 colours and amazed with the results.

Here, 3 of them with 3 very different styles & approaches, reflecting their individualistic.

Usually we prefer to do painting on the floor as it is more spacious and less confined as compared to table. The boys could stretch out or move from one side to another to get the painting done. This could encourage them develop their big motor skill (using the whole arm). And most importantly, each of them have their own personal space to work on and less disagreement. :)

Today, they prefer to draw instead of their usual painting-the-whole-paper-full. Hence, I took the opportunity to guide them with changing of colours in order to distinguish the various objects in the drawing. *very busy asking them 1by1 on the story that they are drawing, then guide him with the colours.

They had a great one and half hour of fun learning, then proceed on with the cleaning up - the brushes & plates, the floor & lastly themselves.

Their interesting drawings:
(I am amazed that they could draw quite well considering for their age - 3 yrs old)

Juin & Syuen drew Dhow Boat and relate it with our recent Dhow Cruise.
