Colorful River

Make a colorful river using sidewalk chalk and water lightly running from your garden hose. The kids enjoy watching the colors mix and make a beautiful mural on the driveway.

Kadinsky Heart Tree

Kandinsky is perhaps most famous for his abstract circle paintings. I combined this idea with Valentine's Day. Using oil pastels which I absolutely love -these are the adult version of crayons; I just added rings of heart shapes (instead of circles). This is very calming activity for all ages. You end up with a nice vibrant piece of artwork. Kids will enjoy blending the colors together around the perimeter of the hearts.
