Oh my word, you guys. We have had the longest stretch of cold, gray, rainy days.

At first, my kids delighted in the rain. They donned rain boots and puddle hopped, searched for worms, and played with mud.

But, after a while, the rain got old.

They still went outside, but they didn’t stay out for long. They would return to the kitchen, soggy and crabby, and announce:

What can I do? I’m BORED.

Truth be told, I think boredom is good for kids. My children are their most creative moments after whining about boredom.

But the thing is, I have less tolerance for whining about boredom when we have had a stretch of 9,452 rainy days. (Okay, it hasn’t been that long, but it sure feels like it!)

On these days, I like to have an emergency plan. And, in our world, that plan often involves art.

Why?

Because art calms my kids down. It calms me down, too.

Today, I’m sharing an art course that we recently enjoyed. Just in case you need an emergency plan too!

When I heard that ChalkPastel.com was adding video courses, I had to check them out.

You guys! Look at her eye- she had a chalk pastel shiner!

The fun thing about chalk pastels is that you do not need any artistic ability. They are easy to use and non-intimidating.
