I freely admit that I am neither artistic nor fond of messy projects. Fortunately, there is a wonderful place just down the street where kids are encouraged to make a mess and explore their artsy side. I have wondered about this 1920s bungalow that has become progressively more colorful over the years. Now I know, it's an open studio for budding young artists. 
Each room features a different type of project, most involving paint. The ideas are so creative and teach colors, textures, cooperative play, cause and effect, and more. Tessa and her friend rolled and bounced golf balls through wet paint to create unusual designs. Who thinks of things like that?
T-shirts are provided for moms like me that stress about paint stains on clothes.
Tessa's favorite station was the Spin Art table. With her light touch, we were able to add several colors to each card and produce interesting and fun mini masterpieces. The girls were even good about taking turns. I think this was my favorite station too.
