Hey kid... there's a BIG chameleon behind you... and he's made of Legos!!! 🦎🌈 #legosculpture #jacksonvillezoo #chameleon (at Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens)

We are fans of these new #mrsketch scented gel crayons!!! They smell just like Mr. Sketch markers and are a little softer than oil pastels... very smooth and FUN to work with! Plastic casing keeps little (and big) hands clean ✨🖍🌈🐼 (at Riverside/Avondale Historic District)

As art therapists we have a love/hate relationship with coloring books. They are NOT a substitute for art therapy, y'all! But when a nonverbal kiddo chooses a picture card of a circle when you ask him if he wants more paper, you give him that mandala coloring page and let him go to town! Glad we did!! 🦋💙🖍🎨✨#inclusiveart #adaptiveart #coloringpages #mandala #arttherapy #openstudio #indigoarttherapy (at Riverside and Avondale)
