First, I have to say it took me a long time to start going to Artscape. This is our third year, and the first time I've ever been disappointed. Previous years were full of kids activities for free that encouraged artistic expression. The girls have done rock painting, easel painting, picked out free books, tried out musical instruments, made winsocks, decorated hats and little back sacks, had face painting, played in the lego tent, picked up free pencils and fans, and the huge Target tent filled with acivities. That was BOTH years.
This year was so much less! One place to decorate a visor, I couldn't find any other free kids crafts. There were Little Tykes style playhouses decorated by artists that the kids could play in, and a mustache ride. As you can imagine, with so few things to do and so many children, there was some wait time for turns.
