Celebrating our Differences

God made us all different! He made us with love and intention, and He doesn't make mistakes! 

We shared the book It's Ok To Be Different by Todd Parr. His creative illustrations and inclusive messages made us all feel accepted and loved. We are all special!



We seized this opportunity to celebrate our uniqueness by making our own posters! What makes us different?

Our art and writing will be on display for the next week, so please come by during your interview night and enjoy our hard work. 

(a) I have freckles. (b) I am good at art. 


Not only is it ok to be different, but it is AWESOME!

Parr-fect Portraits

This week we were inspired by Todd Parr's creative illustrations and messages of acceptance and inclusivity! His books rock!

After a week of painting and creativity, our It's Ok To Be Different projects are complete!



For this painting project, we were asked to use one warm colour and one cool colour. We began by painting our background and an outline of our face. 


After some clean up and a little drying time, we assembled our work and carefully added black details!



Check out our creative, "Todd Parr-inspired" portraits! 


We also seized the opportunity to celebrate our uniqueness and made posters about our special differences! 

(1) I like minty foods. (2) I don't like pizza. 
(3) I have glasses. (4) I like worms. (5) I know how to fish. 


We are God's masterpieces! He made us unique and with intention, perfect in His eyes and truly amazing!

P.S. If you are looking for a new cardio program, consider painting with 6 year olds.

Using wacky, bright colours, we made "Todd Parr-inspired" self-portraits! Amazing! Check them out!

First we painted...
