Today at Elias' school was the first "Bring A Grown-Up to School Day". Let me tell you, for a stay-at-home dad that's some big excitement! This month's project was Pumpkin Painting. The kids got little pumpkins and the grown-ups got big pumpkins. We had fun painting and adding lots of colors to our pumpkins. Elias takes after his father in the "visual arts" department...let's just say his pumpkin artwork was in the representational style.
My pumpkin looks like one of the other three year olds in the class may have painted it. Other parents were getting real bold colors and solid brush strokes but as hard as I tried I could only muster up this goofy looking fella:
But it wasn't about the artwork, it was about spending time with Elias and that by itself is a good time! After the pumpkin painting we all had a snack of doughnut holes, grapes, yogurt and cookies and apple cider or milk for a beverage. We rounded out the morning with some songs and dances. Check out Elias and his buddies dancing around the classroom:
