Chalk textures

Today we got out our sidewalk chalk and explored writing on some different textures. A bumpy tree, the edge of the raised vegetable garden, and the fence! I talked about the different textures and how the chalk wrote on each as we worked. Q found out that if she dipped her chalk in the birdbath water it wrote much brighter! This activity only took about 10 minutes, but we had fun exploring some canvases other than the usual cement!
