The painting was a three step process with the base coat one solid color. The second step was adding another color by splattering or lightly sponging another color of paint. A third step included a choice of assorted tools to add a very unique and intriguing pattern and texture and additional paint if desired. The tools included small sponges, string, mini rakes, a plastic knife and fork, a tooth brush and a plastic weaving mat.

The garden songs that brought great excitement to the children and inspired the decorating are “All Around the Gardener’s Bench,”  “Who’s that Hatching”, “I Plant a Little Seed” and “Lots of Worms“ and Here’s a Baby Birdie.

This picture shows how the children included everything for the story told in the song “The Gardener’s Bench” from Farm Songs and the Sounds of Moo-sic. Notice the gardener pouring the water, the rain from the cloud, the sun, and the flowers of many colors. On the left side, the “critters” were placed for opportunity to eat what’s in the garden. Music Box Members: Check out the video of the performance!

The variety of birds were inspired from “Here’s a Baby Birdie” from Farm Songs and the Sounds of Moo-sic. Music Box Members, check out the preschoolers singing the story in Music Box Videos.  “Who’s that hatching” from In All Kinds of Weather Kids Make Music,  also hatched the ideas of some bugs that hatch.  And way under the ground, you will see ”Lots of Worms”!  (a big hit from “Farm Songs and the Sounds of Moo-sic.” )
