A magical learning experience is yours, when you put a birthday party in your lesson plans. Having a party for a famous artist or author imprints a historical event in your child's mind. March 30 is the birthday of Dutch painter Vincent vanGogh, whose works hang in the finest collections in the world. His most recognized picture? It�s �Starry Night�, in vivid blues and yellows. By using narrow slices of potato and paint, little artists can print and imitate the brush strokes and swirls in a remarkable imitation of vanGogh's technique. This design can be duplicated in frosting on a 9"x13" birthday cake for the Dutch master�s big day. More on vanGogh: VANGOGH, HIS LIFE AND WORKS provides a history of his famous paintings. http://www.christianbook.com/html/static/vangoghworks.html?p=1012123 DRAWING: A COMPLETE COURSE features �The Washerwomen� and several other works of vanGogh for high school artists. http://www.christianbook.com/html/static/drawing_course.html?p=1012123 PEOPLE, START WITH ART teaches tips and techniques for drawing a self-portrait.

Alexander Graham Bell and Benjamin Franklin are two famous inventors credited with developing kites, and at one time there was even a car, a �char-volant� powered by two kites.
