Yesterday we spent the day at The Works Museum. What a great hands-on place! I forgot my camera so no pictures. But there was enough to keep Ginger and I busy for 4 hours while Molly was in an Art-Science class there. One of the many things we loved at the museum was this Budda Board. They had one at the Childrens Museum in Maine but the gift shop was out of them. Lucky for us The Works had plenty in stock!
It really is a zen experience to paint with water on this slate board and watch it eventually fade away.
OOoHHHMmmmmmmmm
We love our Buddha board! They have smaller (red)versions at the Historical Society. I bought my daughter one last year and she still uses it all the time!
I kept missing seeing you this week. Thomas was at the Works Fri but i didn’t go. Then we were at Whetstone at 3, I saw your girls on the playground but i didn’t see you anywhere. I have one of those boards put away in a closet from many years ago, you’ve inspired me to pull it out.
Sheila-I know when I saw Thomas I thought you were around-too bad! My girls walked up to the playground from our house. How was the raw chocolate class? I couldn’t make it today.
Buddha boards are so fun! Sounds like a great time.
Oh I want!!! Off to search the net…
