Art appreciation tip

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
We are starting to do art appreciation a la Charlotte Mason- who says the kids should study about 6 works of art by one artist, one a week and to use large prints of the art.

My trick is that I am going to buy wall calenders of art work of the artistes I want to study this year. One calender costs about the same as 2-3 prints, and will give me 12 pictures! I can take apart the calender and hang up the picture of the week in our kitchen after we study it.

Just wanted to share.

Great idea! I thought of that sometime last year and wondered why no one else did this. Then I forgot to go through with it. Thanks for the reminder!

Where are you going to get the calendars? Here's calendars.com selection:
