Recent Art by Sam

Sam doesn't like to draw or write very much, but we are trying to gently encourage him to develop these two skill a little bit more. Last week, Sam's kindergarten teacher gave the parents of her students a few recommendations to help children work on refining their motor skills. We bought some bath crayons the other night, and Sam had a lot of fun drawing in the bathtub. I think these special crayons will be helpful in getting him excited to draw. And, unsurprisingly, Sam does like to draw on the children's menus when they are provided at certain restaurants (first image). If baths and restaurants make drawing more fun, then I suppose we will need to have more of them!
