Crafts vs Art

Up to now, I haven't done crafts with Bear, though she has painted and drawn almost every day since she turned 12 months. Even now, I am hesitant to do them with her. She much prefers to rub glue stick all over her hands then to put it on the paper. Nevertheless, I decided to do a cotton ball lamb with her as she loves the nursery rhyme, "Mary had a Little Lamb." She loves that little cotton ball lamb so much that I decided to do two more crafts with her this week. A circle-and-oval rabbit (we're working on shapes), and an egg - an oval covered with washed and dried eggshells. I must say that she needs lots of "help" still with sticking the items onto the paper. I suppose as with all things, the more crafts one does with them, the more quickly they start to get it.
