Art
By RebeccaH

Here are a few ideas. Use lots of junk materials. The kids love building and gluing etc. Make monsters, dinosaurs, spaceships whatever is your theme.
The plastic wrapping around fragile items. It has bubbles in it. Two ways put paint on it and press onto paper, you can use many colours, like dabbing. Or put paint on it and lay the paper onto the top. Very good for fish, reptiles etc. Also an underwater scene.
Painting with food colouring. We have used crayon and then put the food colouring over the top. The food colouring can be watered down. The main thing is that they enjoy it and don't have to have a "work of art" Concentrate on the skills you want eg cutting, gluing, printing.
