Artist Study - Rousseau

Nathan - age 10

Seth - age 8

project idea inspired by Art for Kids.

A fun, online Jungle Interactive game, inspired by Rousseau.

Since we do not have access to an English library I was thrilled to find some examples of Rousseau's Jungle art in books that I already owned. These are the books I pulled from my shelf and was able to use:

Rainforest

We have truly been so blessed to live near the rainforest. We find it so fascinating and revisit the topic often. We are finally doing a rainforest lapbook that will be a culmination of our learning from many different family field trips and books read.

Here are some of the 'rainforest-y' pictures I've taken over the last few years:

New Pets

Dad brough these two guys home from his last trip to Jacó. It was a nice wrap up to our Frog Study. Aside from now actually trying to attract fruit flies, these are our easiest pets to keep.

Rainforest

We have recently toured a Butterfly Farm and Frog Garden. Since these pictures and memories are so fresh I thought we would take a little time to read up on what we have seen.


In the back of my mind are the makings of an animal notebook...we'll see what develops.

Jan Brett has some fun Rainforest coloring pages and printables.
