I don't know how old the child(ren) in question is/are, but here's a tip to add to your great list. The older they get, the more specific you can get. Ironically, younger kids have an easier time taking off on a general suggestion: "paint a picture." Older kids may insist "painting is boring" because they can't think of what to paint. So, for example, "paint a picture of a jungle." You can go nuts (in a good way) narrowing it down -- "paint a picture of an Amazon jungle using only shades of blue." They may not want to do exactly that, but it may help kids identify something they are excited about doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269031634496605933.post-27048432659728892412008-05-25T13:02:00.000-04:002008-05-25T13:02:00.000-04:00Great list!
