Oh dear. No arts in the schools?

They're running public service ads here in the US to drum up support for arts programs in the schools, dramatizing what happens without arts programs. In one scene, a little girl asks her dad to read her a bedtime story, and says "read this one again, daddy" and hands him a thick leather-bound tome labeled "US Tax Code."

If you give the crayon-set and few paper to your child, she will start drawing soon, but It very difficult stop her.

If I can advice to you, art is no rules.
you play and draw together, she everytime happy than any other teachers.

A boy could not immediately give a reply apparently because many of his classmates had already cited most of the major colors.
