How to draw a Valentine's monkey...Tried it Tuesday

It's Tuesday...time to link-up with my sweet friend Holly 

from Fourth Grade Flipper for

Tried it Tuesday.

 

It's no secret that I'm addicted to Pinterest.

You can find me here.

With the help of Pinterest and my bestie, I 

discovered Art for Kids Hub not too long ago.

I like this site because the artist normally attaches

a YouTube video for students to get a step-by-step

and there are so many options to choose from.

Also...here is the artist's, Rob Jensen, Pinterest page.

if you are interested in followin' him.

(Holy moly...Rob found my blog post...he wrote to ME.

I am ECSTATIC...I just showed my kids and they are FLIPPIN' out.

We feel like real-life ROCKSTARS!)

Tried it Awesomeness : How to draw a Valentine's monkey

(My sweet friend, Erin aka Miss Lifesaver is goin' to LOVE this

because she loves monkeys!)

I browsed many drawin' choices on the 

Art for Kids Hub site.

I finally found one I wanted to use for Valentine's...

a monkey.

Technically, it's not for Valentine's, but

I am makin' my 5th graders be my Valentine this year,

so...they had to draw me a Valentine's monkey.

Only thing...they only had the tutorial for the head.

They had to get creative on their own for the body.

 How to draw a Monkey

I've been pushin' my kids hard.

We needed a break.

Drawin' was the answer.

Music on, crayons out, brains decompressed.

In the drawin' process...

Get ready for a picture overload.  

I couldn't leave any out. 

So precious...I want to squeeze all their cheeks.

The monkeys...not my babies.
