Uniquely Odd and Disturbing Art Project

Lately, my child has fallen in love with art projects.  Interestingly enough, but not surprising, his projects are turning out to be a little (How do I say this nicely without causing long term damage to his self-esteem?) uniquely odd and disturbing.  Don’t get me wrong, I want to encourage Chase’s artistic flare- but come on child, I can only pretend this is normal for so long. 

It all started this weekend when Cory’s mother gave Chase a haircut.  Most children would get their hair cut and move on with their day.  But not my child.  What did Chase want to do with his curly locks that covered the floor in heaps?  He wanted to save his golden locks for an art project (completely his idea). And no, I’m not joking.  He literally looked at the hair and thought to himself- Well this looks like a great start to an art project.


Seriously, an art project with your own hair?  And to top it off, he felt the need to add googly eyes to the hair.  Isn't this how most serial killers started out?  Making art projects with body parts? 

Chase entitled this project, “Little Pretend Chases.” (You can't make this stuff up.)
