There is no wrong way. As long as we’re being safe, this is the ideal time to experiment with the tools and materials available to us.

That said, the final product is not important – it’s all about the process and the exploration.

Work to your child’s happy place – it’s okay to take a break.

You get to play, too – it’s wonderful for children to see adults being creative –it’s not just a kid thing!
