This week during Creative Expression, the kids were told to act out the vehicles they love best. They were allowed to use only things that can be found in the studio as props.
Train.. Choo Choo!!!!
Car – Driving on Federal Highway. Obviously they haven’t tried driving through the massive JAM! See if they’ll still be able to smile then! 😛
Boat – Row, row, row your boat…
Aeroplane – Up, up and away!
And lastly..
Mat Rempit!@_@ (That is what we call those with BIG BIKES driving recklessly on the road!)
The kids at the studio not only do arts and crafts the entire time they are there. They also do some other things such as origami, puzzles and Creative Expression 😀
E.L.E.P.H.A.N.T
The kids trying to be as BIG as an elephant
And then trying to be as little as a mouse…
My Ethan the elephant 😀
Here they are saying, “We have hair not MANE!”(As opposed to the lion 😀)
The lion cub ROARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *This cub will grow up to be one FIERCE lioness 😛*
Let’s do some salt painting today. You’ll need lots of salt, glue and some food colouring. Bare in mind though that this artwork won’t last so be prepared to explain to your kid that he can’t keep this in his gallery 🙂
Salt painting
First, I let him spread glue all over black construction paper.
Place the construction paper in a shallow container and pour salt onto the glue.
Dip a brush into food colouring and slightly touch the tip of the brush on the salt.
Pay attention to the salt. It will suck absorb the food colouring and kids are usually fascinated by it!
Next I spread glue onto a black construction paper. I spelled out his name 🙂 He poured salt all over it 😀
It’s ‘magic’. Kids will be amazed I assure you 😀
Ethan and his masterpiece 🙂 Too bad it will get runny almost immediately though 🙁
When we go out shopping, we like to sample food given by the promoters and always end up with lots of paper cups in hand. Instead of just disposing them, if they are used to serve you cereals or any dry food, chances are they are still clean. Let’s do Mother Nature a favour and recycle those paper cups. Let’s transform them into pretty flowers 🙂
Paper Cup Flower
See this paper cup? Don’t throw them away.
Let’s make a flower out of it 🙂
Cut all around the paper cup
Cut a circle out of craft foam and paste.
Any color of your choice.
