Arts Festival

Last weekend we attended a local art festival and had a great time! All of the activities were great for toddlers and it just so happens that Willow loves art activities and they all fell within her attention span =) We've had a bit of camera drama around here the last few weeks (hence the lack of posting lately) so these pics were all after-the-fact...

She decorated a hat and kite (on her arm of course):

She made a necklace with beads and a clay flower donated by the artist (the girl is seriously motivating me to go to Michaels to pick out crafts for her this summer - she demonstrated some major concentration in stringing the beads and did really well!):

She used paint pens to decorate a clay pot and markers and water on a coffee filter to make a fish. The picture was really neat - they had a doodle artist who adds to a scribble (done by a child) to make it into a picture. He had to turn the paper in all directions multiple times to come up with an idea but I thought it turned out neat =)

She also got to decorate a cookie, play with balls and hoola hoops, see the cats and dogs from the SPCA, and watch all of the other people there (a close tie for her favorite activity). She had a great time!
