Two stars
7 December 09
Aisha and Brioni decorated these stars in Sunday School a week ago (it took a week for the glue to dry), and when I brought them home, I was struck by the differences in the two girls’ creations.
The first star is nicely symmetrical, with careful decorations mimicking the star shape. The second star is decorated with as many additions as possible.
My designer’s eye finds this sort of revelation very interesting, and I wonder if it will lead to one daughter being more inclined towards design and art as an adult. Can you guess which star is decorated by Aisha and which star by Brioni?

I agree with Kerrie – based on age appropriateness more than anything.

I would guess that you are right in your assumption—one will lead more towards design. My oldest boy has always been very particular about getting everything symmetrical and making sure everything is in its rightful place. And he is the one who is growing artistically by leaps and bounds. Certainly through no guidance of mine—he has far surpassed me in that area.
I love the stars—I’m always grateful to the SS teachers for doing “cutesy” stuff with the kids. Sometimes I forget to do that type of thing in homeschool, so I miss out on all the cute artwork to save for a lifetime.
