McKay's artwork

McKay drew this on the way to California. It was just so cute, I had to post it.



I know that some of you cannot interpret 1st grade phonetic spelling, so here is the translation, from top to bottom, left to right I am going to include his spelling because that is one of the things that I love about his drawings:

"Flying soser, Satrn, Mars, Moon"= Flying saucer, Saturn, Mars, Moon
"Milky Way, Spae Ship, Erath" = Milky Way, Space Ship, Earth
"Aschrinot, Sun, Star" = Astronaut, Sun, Star

"Spaes" = Space

Ilischratid by McKay = Illustrated by McKay

Ather by McKay = Author by McKay

I just love his imagination! McKay says he wants to be an cook for the astronauts while also being an artist.

That is sooo cute! you should frame it! I have framed a few of each of our kids artwork and they are hanging up in the play area. It makes them feel so special!
Also, I love how kids try to figure out their phonetics when spelling at that age!
Kaleb (age 6) made his own journal a few weeks ago. He stapled some paper together and on the front wrote:
My Jurnu Kaleb aje 6

Inside he wrote about going to "brgr keen" and "womomort"
I love it!
