Kids love to make things that are unique, something all their own. Parents love to have things they can keep to remind them of their children being...well...little children!
In my art and craft class this term, I have been blessed with a wonderful class of six children, aged from (teeny tiny!) 3 to 7.
In our first class, we made a "Me Book" or Portfolio of their art work.
Because these were special books, only made by them, it was important that I provided the materials:
A book (with lots of blank pages to fill with pictures over the coming weeks) each, colouring pencils & pens, lots of shiny paper & pictures, glue
.
I was there for guidance and to help with suggestion of materials and techniques, but other than that, it was important that I stood back and let them create.
Some of the finished "Me books" for the little ones to be proud of!
All decorated and ready to be filled with lots of lovely pictures over the next 6 weeks....
Next week, we will make Half-face Masks.
Week 3 & 4 - Salt Dough. Week 5 & 6 - Papier Mache.
Call back again soon to find out all about how we get on and how we did things!
