It is the place of children to test and confirm the healthy boundaries that we as parents set for them. (97cm by 106cm, (c) Ruth de Vos, 2012)

Once upon a time there were some small children who loved to read books. Page after page, book after book, they devoured the pictures and stories. ‘Please read us a story,’ they would say to every unsuspecting visitor. (144cm by 149cm, 2010)

Here is a picture for you… and another… and another…Thanks to these prolific artists, I am the proud owner of a huge collection of artwork! (142cm by 163cm, 2010)

“I like to do rolypolys but it is so tricky for me – my body doesn’t do what I tell it to – usually I fall over sideways, or my feet stay stuck to the ground but I have lots of fun anyway, and giggle and giggle and giggle…” (85cm by 60cm (c) Ruth de Vos 2007)

Small children don’t need to see the largest waterfalls and tallest mountains in order to marvel at God’s creation – they see the wonder of the small, everyday things in their life – raindrops, bubbles, beautiful leaves, tiny insects, and falling blossoms. (180cm by 200cm (c) Ruth de Vos 2011)

This is our family. I am privileged to observe these artists at work every day. (96cm by 129cm, 2009)

Babies and toddlers are continually learning new skills in their quest to explore the world around them. (149cm by 133cm (c) Ruth de Vos 2011)

Children can sometimes be hard-pressed to recount what they actually learnt during the day. Little do they know just how much learning they are experiencing in every facet of their school day. (127cm by 250cm (c) Ruth de Vos 2012)

My two small children love nothing better than to visit the "dead animals" at the WA Museum. We take our sketchbooks and enjoy a journey of artistic and scientific discovery. What a wonderful world God has made! (92cm by 127cm, 2008)
