Hello,
 
Here are a couple of links which are playfully fun. These are all ways to  
create art online. Some may be appropriate for use by very young learners (Like 
 
the first two links here), others are more appropriate for 7 - 8 years and  
up.
 
Perhaps you will share some of YOUR favorite art sites for young learners  
too!
 
Thanks for your time,
 
Gail

Jackson Pollock
Just click and move the mouse and you have instant Jackson Pollock art.  Each 
time the mouse is clicked the color will change. You can right click (on a  
Windows machine) and choose print or just enjoy the computer screen art.
