Letting Them Paint What They Love: Henry’s Angry Bird Painting

My five-year-old Henry continues to be obsessed with Angry Birds.  Not only does he love to play the game (and all its versions), but (as previously seen) he loves his collection of Angry Bird stuffed animals, creating Angry Bird scenes and “live-action” play, making Angry Bird videos, … and now drawing and painting Angry Birds.

For this project I allowed him to use a small canvas,  washable paint, and a Sharpie maker.  I instructed him to draw out his design first in pencil and then paint.

He proudly hung it in his room!

The completed art ... hung in his bedroom (with the horizon matching up as instructed by the artist)
