Play centers
(I HAVE to tell the back story on this one.  It's one of my favorite pieces of Luke's art this year.  It was lined up on the wall at school amongst all his classmates works. I saw lots of smiles and flowers and hearts.  I had to ask--"Luke, were you feeling sad today?" Luke--(sounding VERY distressed)"No, Mommy. I just drew it wrong and I couldn't have another paper." So we came home and Luke was practicing faces over and over. He kept drawing these frowns but he was drawing them above the eyeballs--as if he were drawing the entire face upside down. I asked "why is his mouth above his eyes? My mouth is not above my eyes. Your mouth is not above your eyes. Draw the mouth down here (pointing to the anatomically correct positioning)"  Wham-o, he can now draw a smile. And he did-over and over, on about a hundred sheets of paper. What a victory for Luke!)
