We bought an awesome 130 piece art set for him at Michaels for $5. I remember receiving a similar art set from my Grandma and Grandpa when I was in second or 3rd grade and loving it. So when I saw this on special I wanted him to have it. We already have plenty of things under the Christmas tree and he has done so well at school, we decided to give it as a just-because gift. We hardly ever buy random things just because, and its actually nice because when we do, they are very much appreciated.
Here are some of the little works of art Garrett has created. He gave some as Christmas gifts and gave one to his teacher for her birthday. Always a thoughtful boy :-) He mostly did little abstract bits here. But he has also been drawing and making stories like crazy, which was the motivation for his Christmas gift (to be shared later) .. . .
More to come (hopefully).
