Seems Small but it's Huge

Just a quick blog on this beautiful July 4th. I wanted to share a teacher triumph from yesterday. I am usually a stickler for smocks at the easel and have one child who just never seems interested in easel painting. So yesterday when I asked him if he wanted to paint and he said yes I didn't even mention a smock I just let him get to it. I was so impressed and proud that he decided to try it that I figured rules be damned! What's a little washable paint compared to a huge triumph like that?!?!
