Ah! Blue Chalk!

   
     I couldn't resist it! I finally found a satisfying blue chalk picture and wouldn't you know it was linked to some chalk pastel tutorials.   I found this link to chalk pastels on one of my blog list blogs on the side of the page called homeschool creations April 11.

      I love the art Ideas that list, as one of the materials, baby wipes! cleanup made effortless.

Movies with a message even today.

     Here is a stack of links to some of my favorite children's movies. Most of the time the little ones couldn't take their eyes off the show as the animators drew in the characters and told the story. The three starred ones are the ones we own and have always been favorites, I just love the message in Miriam's .  Warning: The Mary and Joseph one has a reference to Jesus' little brothers and sisters. If you show these to very little children you may have to do some explaining.
