Summer Hobbies + Learning
Summer provides ample opportunities to explore, observe, relax, and recharge.
Nature abounds and hobbies await! A child can simply step outdoors -- with pencil or paints in hand -- to capture their world around them.
The most learning occurs when children (or adults) immerse themselves in the things that interest them the most.
Allow plenty of free time for children to stretch their wings, try new hobbies, or pursue a multitude of interests in the weeks to come.
This "Misty Lake" painting was inspired by watching the mist rise above the lake, resembling ghosts floating on top of the water.
Take a walk to a nearby lake, pond, or stream, and see what types of scenery your children might be inspired to sketch or paint.
Then research or read about the scenes they capture. The resulting knowledge, skills, and enjoyment are priceless!
This "Misty Lake" tutorial can be viewed on my YouTube channel, Misty Glow Studio, at this link: Misty Lake.
Have a great summer!
