Ready... Set... COLOR!

A few weeks ago we took the kids of Grace School to an exhibit at the Seongnam Arts Center called the "Color Playground."

First, they took the kids on a tour of different kinds of art, including paintings of which they could be a part.

They are always so well behaved on field trips. At time we wonder if they are the same children we teach every day
They went through several exhibits, including one where they turned off the lights and turned on a bubble machine!

There was a shadow puppet exhibit.


 
The main attraction of the Color Playground was fingerpainting these cars! They poured some paint on the tables and let the kids have at it. No smocks or anything.

Fingerpainting...this way! 


Green hands!

Yellow hands!

 Multi-colored hands!

 Un-impressed hands.

 Monster hands!


 
Roy hands.

 Getting more paint for the cars.

 After painting the cars, they gave all the children rags and had them clean up!

 Clean-ish hands!

 Jump!



 After the painting adventure, we found a room filled with packing peanuts and dark blue lights. We took the kids inside and went nuts! Their favorite part was covering the teachers with them.



 Aaaahhhh!

Clearly they were not having any fun. 

 All in all, it was definitely one of our best field trips ever.

I love the painting of the cars! Wow I can't believe they really let them paint real cars. What fun. The packing looked equally fun and what could be better than two teachers that would actually get in the peanuts with them. What memories! I'm glad they are well behaved during field trips. It is a pain when you are away from school and they act up. Love the picts. Mom S.
