What do you think of when you hear “chalk art?” Do you think of small children outside on the sidewalk drawing letters, pictures and playing hopscotch? Wow! Not only does this clearly and creatively tell the best story in the world, The Story of Jesus, the chalk art really makes the story come to life. Even my kids were fascinated with the great detail shown in the story. The faces are so “real” it feels like you are part of the story.
The best thing of all, is it is followed by art lessons. They help break down some of the techniques used in these inspiring drawings for even the beginning artist. Don’t forget to also look at the Bonus Features where the story of salvation is brought to life in an amazing chalk art display. It is a great story for adults and children of all ages!
