Straw Painting and making homemade wrapping paper

All you need is some paint, paper, and a few straws.  Cut the ends of the straws to get an effect when you paint.  

Yep, this is my really old and nasty pan that is now for art! :) 

Pretty artwork!  I think I will let these dry and use them as wrapping paper!  :)

Concentrating so hard on the project.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program.
