50th Year Challenge

After considering a lot of possibilities I believe I have decided what I am going to do for the 50th year challenge. It only has a little clay in it (*gasp*).
Inspired first by
mrq_laurellen's beautiful projects, then by
brighidross's "Year of the Child" plans (ahhh, Dragon's Laire, you guys rock) I am going to make a small book of Medieval and Renaissance art projects for children, both younger and older kids, and make it available at my cost to any branch that wants one.
It's going to include lesson plan-like stuff without the state requirements and edu-speak. But it will include background related information (pre-docs), materials required, examples, step-by-step procedure, and tips for doing them.
I'm not going to include "50" lessons, that would be overkill.
I finished one this week. Doing the projects themselves isn't time consuming for me, but writing it out clearly so other people know what the heck I mean is quite a challenge.
Oh and Brighid, I still plan to send you some of the individual lessons this year (long before the booklet is finished), with hopes for feedback.
