The 'proper' way......

We set out paintbrushes, water, giant sheets of paper, and watercolor blocks. This lil sweetheart was using her (age appropriate) skills to manipulate the slippery blocks in and out of the spaces where they fit. I could have panicked and showed her how to use them 'properly'; I chose to sit back and watch her inquisitive mind explore. She was working hard. :)
