Some people are born with the “Celebrity” gene; Kelsey is one of them. Since she was a wee toddler Kelsey has been entertaining us all with her humor, wit, honesty and dancing, but after awhile the demands of “Celebrity” can weigh on anyone……
Posing for her fans constant requests for pictures was exhausting…
Luckily we caught up with Kelsey in her latest Bee-Boppin’ dance performance… Check out the shining star here….
Isn’t she amazing? We always knew she would be a star! Here’s some Paparazzi shots after the show…she doesn’t seem too pleased by the intrusion…it’s rough being so adored ain’t it Kels? xoxo Aunt Nini

You know how every parent thinks their kid is the cutest kid? I think I can relate, cause I think my Art Students are the most talented Artists! My 3 and 4 year old Little Artists made these Ceramic Heart Boxes. I prepped them with pre-flattened clay and a heart cookie cutter. The steps were the following:
1.) Cut two hearts out of the flattened clay.
2.) Skor the edges of all hearts and apply slip to edges.
3.) Take pre flattened clay and skor the edge, then mold around one of the heart shapes to make the sides of the box. When the heart is shaped the way you want cut off the excess on the top with a wire clay cutter.
4.) Roll a tiny ball for the top of the box. Skor and slip the ball to the other heart shape.
5.) Fire in the kiln at 3000 degrees. When it comes out talk to the students about cool colors and warm colors. (This is my favorite part! I ask the kiddos what something thats hot? They say, “The sun!” I say “what color is the sun?” They say “Yellow!” I make a list on the board of all things that are hot and coincidentally, Those are all of our warm colors! I told the kids that because the heart means love and warm feelings we are going to use “warm colors” some of them get bummed because they want to use other colors, but I have found when it comes to childrens art if they are provided with too many colors they mix them all and get brown anyway
I’m not sayin’ thats not “pretty” or “artistic” but I think it’s my job as a teacher to show them what different color combinations can do for their art!
