Without further ado, here is what I plan to add over the next several months:
Liquid watercolors
Watercolor brushes (I bought these for my classroom 6 years ago and they have held up beautifully in the hands of literally hundreds of young artists! I have seen an assorted 5 pack at Michael's before...I will NOT being buying the classroom caddy for one kiddo!)
No-spill paint cups
Easy Grip brushes
Chubby brushes
Paint sticks (I have never used these but have read that they are great for little ones!)
And of course paper, which I will probably pick up with 40% off coupons at Michaels or Blick. Essential paper will be: drawing paper (eventually 80 lb), watercolor paper, and construction paper (in my classroom I only use Pacon Tru-Ray construction paper...it is lovely!)
My mom gave us a heavy duty, old school, kid-sized artists easel that will be perfect for clamping paper to once Felicia is old enough/tall enough to paint at it.
That is my list so far! What are your favorite art materials for yourself? For little ones?
