What Would You Do: Petite Picasso
We’re at a café that displays fine art on the walls with prices displayed next to them. A mother is there with her young child, who is drawing with markers. Mom asks the people around her to keep an eye out while she steps away. Our little Picasso quickly turns her markers from the paper in front of her to a painting on the café wall. What will people do? When mom returns, how will people react when she tries to cover it up or drag them into her mess? And what will people say when our little Picasso doesn’t understand why people don’t like her pretty picture? Watch what happens:
