Start with Art Questions: 

• Describe the colors and mood of this painting. How does the painting make you feel? 

• What do you think the three kids are carrying in their boxes? 

• Where do you think the children might be headed with the boxes? Are they delivering something special? Moving something? On their way to use the boxes for a special purpose? 

We typically START WITH ART at the breakfast table or on the drive to school. Share how you're folding this into your daily routine by tagging us on Instagram @pageofarthistory and/or the tag #startwithart 🖼️
