One of my favourite aspects about working at Junior OSC is appreciating how creative the young ones are. Whether this is during an art activity or during free play, the kids amaze me with what they come up with and create. Last Friday, Pearlena lead an art activity where the kids were able to draw whatever they wanted on some ceramic mugs. I saw so many creations ranging from poke-a-dot designs to butterflies. One child even drew “Shopkinz” on her mug (Shopkinz are these cute and small grocery-themed characters). The mugs turned out beautifully and they will be great to use for hot chocolate as the weather gets colder. Later that day, I also saw some children drawing Shopkinz on paper. One child put together a book with the different Shopkinz on each page while another cut the drawings out and put them in a paper envelope. It was great to see the kids take inspiration from these small figurines and then creating their own projects. Overall, it was a great afternoon! :)
