Making Collages
Inspired by these, the little boys and I made collages. We just used what we had on hand, which was construction paper.
We just cut out shapes...
and glued them on.
The youngest was nervous about cutting out the shapes himself, so I cut them out for him to his specifications. 
The three of us helped each other, shared ideas and gave advise.
I found out through this that sometimes it is the experience that is more important...
than making them do it themselves, or have only their own ideas.
It was a free exchange of ideas and closeness; a warm, happy, creative time...
one I will never forget.
