Both of us exploring pastel chalk drawings at StrongStart.

I asked for “Pressed Pants” not “Plants” !!!

Pressed Plants / Drawing

All joking aside, Jade and I had a blast at StrongStart yesterday.

StrongStart is a FREE early education program in BC, Canada.

The top drawing is a fun doodle from our pressed plants (shown below).

Jade really loved being in the trails and picking leaves and flowers.

And I really liked drawing from our exploration.

This exercise helped me focus on unique details and shapes of our local plants.

My Happy Little Painter

Jade loves painting at StrongStart. These are her “happy totem poles”.

Jade & Her Reindeer Games

Reindeer Antlers

Jade’s mom made these great reindeer antlers for Jade.

I can’t believe she made it in crochet!

Jade was really excited to wear it to her StrongStart Christmas Party.

Wiggling Ice Skaters

Wiggling Ice Skaters

Jade painted this at StrongStart before the holidays.

I’m the red skater and Jade is in gold.

I think we’re with the Canadian Olympic team (haha).

Jade really enjoyed skating with me earlier this month.

We’ll have to go again soon.

Pre-School Paint Presentation

Jade Painting

Jade gives me a personal presentation of her latest painting.

It’s fun listening … But even better watching her paint.

Jade and I collaborated to paint a wizard at StrongStart.

My daughter dabbled the yellow stars.

The school has a fun dress up area with a great wizard hat.
