Pour les ateliers accompagnés des parents, nous n'avons eu que 2 enfants. Il
faut dire que le soleil brillait et que la température était parfaite pour la
piscine ou la plage. Le jeune A. et son ami L. ont profité du beau temps pour
faire une mosaïque fleurie inspirée de l'artiste Verchueren. (Voir l'entrée du 4
juillet pour une explication de l'activité.) Que de surprises nous réserve la
nature! Des perdrix nous ont accompagnées durant la cueillette. Une fois les
mandalas terminés, on a joué à la tag pour se dégourdir les jambes et l'on a
expérimenté avec les pigments naturels. Saviez-vous que les pétales de
fleurs violettes laissent des traits bleus sur le papier? ... Et que les boutons
d'or donnent un jaune vibrant? Certaines feuilles vertes peuvent aussi servir à
dessiner du vert! Vous pouvez aussi laisser aller votre imagination et expérimenter pour
faire vos créations à la maison.
For our afternoon workshop, we had 2 children. The sun was blazing and it was a perfect beach day. Little A. and his friend L. took advantage of the sunshine to make a flower mosaic inspired by Bob Verchuren's worik. See the July 4th entry for more details on this activity. Nature is so unpredictable, some jumpy pheasants accompanied us and scared the daylights out of Suzanne a couple of times! Once the mandalas were finished, we played a game of tag to wake up our sleepy legs and we experimented with natural pigments. Did you know purple flower petals make blue marks on paper? That buttercups leave a vibrant yellow? Some green leaves can also be used to draw in green! Let your imagination run wild and try it out at home.

Après avoir cueilli, il faut tout trier!
After picking up some things we have to sort them.
