One thing you might not know about me is my dad owns an art and frame gallery in Washington DC. He has had it my entire life and growing up I was always surrounded by art. Now don’t confuse that as me actually being a great artist, because I definitely can’t draw 😉 But I do have a deep appreciation for art and hope as my children grow up they do too. That is why today I am sharing some of our favorite art books for kids.
