Come gather round, young ones, and hear,
A poem about things that we hold dear.
We'll learn about making, drawing, and more,
And all the fun things we can explore.

To start, let's learn how to hold a pen,
And draw a picture of a den.
We can paint it brown, or green, or blue,
And make it look just like brand new.

When we're done, we can close our eyes,
And imagine we're in a world of surprise.
We can put our picture on the wall,
And feel proud, standing tall.

But if we want to hide it away,
We can borrow a box for another day.
We can live in a world of art and fun,
And never stop until we're done.

So let's hit the books and learn some more,
And open up the doors to explore.
We'll make new friends and paint the town,
And never let a smile turn into a frown.

For the world is a canvas for us to create,
And we can always find a reason to celebrate.
So let's hold onto our dreams and never let go,
And let our imaginations continue to grow.

Reflections

1. What were some of the art projects the young creators worked on?
2. How did the young creators feel when they were finished with their projects?
3. Why do you think the young creators chose to hide some of their art?
4. What did the young creators learn on their artistic journey?
5. What is the message or lesson that you took away from the story?
