In Summer!

Even though it's only just now officially spring and I'm just starting my spring break, I'm honestly thinking a lot about summer.  (It's just been one of those years.)  So today we drew Olaf in honor of summer.  Isn't he just the cutest snowman ever?  Watch this if you're unsure.


We watched the video below, straight from Disney, of how to draw Olaf.  The artist makes some artistic moves that are a bit too complicated for first graders, so I simplified my directions. It was still very interesting for them to watch though.


Here's how Olaf turned out.








In summer!

  2. The drawings turned out great! I'm sure the kids just loved it! Did you see the movie? I made my 15 year old son go with me and secretly I think he loved it too! :)

    Have a great spring break!
