One of the best ways to inspire your young artists to create art is to play some soothing music, give them some art supplies, and let their imaginations guide their hands. It's fun to see what happens if you play some energetic music as well. The paintings and drawings may reflect the extra energy. "Play It Again, D.W." is the Arthur episode this lesson is based on.
