"Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air — explode softly — and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth — boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn’t go cheap, either — not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination." ~Robert Fulghum The above quote does hold some inspiration. Wouldn't it be lovely if a world was covered in art. All those beautiful colors used to draw animals, flowers, and houses to list a few ideas. Lets not forget the sparkle and glitter ones, too. A little bit of shine does the mind good. I am going to look up what color umber resembles. Taking a quick nap. Super Sid is lying down on the job. This is only day 4. How can he be this tired already? The job isn't that hard keeping five little monkeys entertained. Oh, who am I kidding! Move over please, Super Sid. I need a nap, too. RAINBOW is a color. Super Sid knew the little ones love to color. Honestly, it is one of their favorite things to do. Crayons, colored pencils, markers (gasp), oh my! But it helps their budding artistic side. Works at keeping them calm, most of the time. Sometimes they have a little issue with crossing each other's pages out. Must be a new Crayola Gang thing. I love sitting and watching them spend time creating colors on a picture they way they see it. The purple dogs really are adorable.
