We made rock painting a new tradition. I was buying rock painting kits of every kind, but none to our satisfaction. Kits either had dried out paint pods, or the brushes would be frayed, sometimes the rocks would be small or uneven and the design transfers wouldn’t stick. Each time my son struggled to find the right words, crying “this art does not fit my ideas, REDO IT!”, and what started in an effort to help him actually ended up being much more.
