Open Ended Art - Bean Mosaic


This is the first week of Open Ended Art for us. The theme is Bean Mosaic so I put out some lentils and peas (close enough to beans) for Andy to make his masterpiece. He wanted to stick some pom-poms on too and of coarse wanting to encourage creativity I put those out as well and seeing as we missed out on the first mosaic week (which I think was paper) I put some of that out too. So all in all Andy had a creative blast and loads of fun (I'm sure I'll be forgiving the variation on the bean theme as the main point of Open Ended Art is to have fun)... :)

Here is the masterpiece...


To see what bean mosaics others have done go here.

  2. Welcome to open-ended art! I love your masterpiece! I think the most important part of open-ended art is for a child to have fun, and Andy clearly had it.
