American Girl Art

Last Christmas the girls received a cute art kit from Santa. I store some of these kits for the perfect time. And, apparently the perfect time was a year later!!!

This American Girl kit had 6 small paint by number pictures to paint. The girls loved it as a fun little wind down activity on a Friday evening and a Sunday morning. I think being creative and playing with art can really help you work through some issues you might be having. It's relaxing.












Once they were done, we framed two of the prints on the mat and with the frame that came with the kit. Shelly will put these in her room. Lily wanted to put her artwork on the wall without a frame.




Some of the AG kits we've purchased have been a bit difficult for kids, but this one was a hit with the girls and ME!

Stunts




Shelly has really been into watching cheerleading stunts on Youtube. She then likes to get her American Girl doll and perform stunts with her. It makes me smile every time she does it!
