Atelier Ringo + Little Circus

I am always happy when I find out about interesting things happening right here where I live.  Because of the language barrier, I am not always inclined to get out there and meet teachers at other schools, or go to events.  But I do like Little Circus, an online shop based here in Brussels. 

This is the second time they have joined up with Ringo Atelier, an online space with inspiration for children's artistic endeavors.  Ringo is a really nice place - the internet is filled to the brim with coloring pages and closed-ended "art" projects for preschoolers.  The Ringo Atelier gives ideas and inspiration, from shapes and materials to artists for children to work in the style of.  I'm enjoying looking through the site.

Atelier Little Circus*Ringo wants children to submit their "monstrous shadows" between now and March 22nd. 

 

Little Circus

I'm in love again, and this time it's LOCAL. In Brussels. Be still my heart!

Little Circus is a beautiful shop full of items, many handmade, for little ones.. They have very talented artists' work here -- I'm particularly fond of these, this, and this.

And this! It would really help the children to be more hands on during cooking activities. And to help write them, and read them.

Happy Weekend...
