kids in cookie cutters

Random Rant.

Why is craft time for kids always so specific? It goes like this. Some adult makes something cute and easy made out of cheap things and then makes it into a 5 step process. They buy all the plastic beads, save up weird things like toilet paper tubes and soups cans, and pull out some bad scissor. Then they put their craft out infront of all the kids and the best copy cat wins! Where is the art? Where is the creativity? I got an idea, how about you put all the most beautiful things out on a table and let them make whatever they want! And if they want to recycle the cereal box and cover it with buttons and make the cutest, ugliest hat you have ever seen, so be it! They used their mind and expressed their heart.

Beautiful Portraits

My new favorite blog to look at:
youaremywild.wordpress.com

Its a collaboration project!!! My favorite kind of project! 

You Are My Wild is a weekly portrait project that brings together 14 photographers to document how they see their children.

Take a look! (cause unlike this blog they actually post weekly! imagine that!)
