Halloween Doodles....

The boys and I headed to the bookstore on Saturday.  What better thing to do on a rainy day?  Sam picked up a couple books he has had his eye on and Jack picked up these drawing books.  We have spent the entire weekend doodleing!

This books gives you ideas for the pages and a start on your picture.  For example, a page will say "Decorate the witches' hats" and then there are three different witch hats on the page to decorate. Another page is an empty haunted house and you get to draw in whatever you would like in the different room.   Jack loves this book!

If you have or know kids, you need to get them an Ed Emberley drawing book.  These are the best drawing books due to each drawing being based on simple shapes.  It also shows the "illustrator" how to draw the image step by simple step.  (An Ed Emberley book, a new drawing pad and markers would be the perfect Christmas gift!)

See how easy it is to draw!


So Jack and i filled our weekend with "Halloween Doodles" and drawing Ed Emberley figures in our doodles book!  He then wanted to draw the spooky house, so a HUGE sheet of paper was on the menu!


Here you can see the spooky house that Jack drew and the little black cat on the porch!
Great Halloween fun...and it's only the first week in September!
