One of our summer activities has been participating in the ICAD project. My kids are enjoying it and so am I! While we enjoy spontaneous, freelance artwork on our cards, it has also been fun to use some of the weekly ICAD prompts. This week we used the CHAOS prompt.
I guided my kids in a doodling project that I remember enjoying as a child. Simply grab a marker and doodle one continuous, curvy, crazy, chaotic line over the page! {Don’t lift your marker until you are done!}
Then color in the various empty spaces with different color markers…and that’s it!
The concept is super easy! Even my 4 year olds had fun and did an awesome job!
Here are our finished index cards! I am so impressed with how well they turned out! Can you even tell which are the kid’s and which is mine?
Why did I choose CHAOS as our prompt?
I chose CHAOS, because I feel like the word accurately depicts my life right now! The crazy, continuous line is me in motion…all the time. As a mama of five, there is always something to be done! Yet, despite the constant motion and my lively, colorful children, it all comes together to make a beautiful masterpiece!
