Using Leftovers


Use up that paint and other materials you have on hand that last day.
I saw the dog painting HERE.

Supplies:

poster board (the ones you have covering the table to catch spills!)
left over acrylic and tempera paints

little notecards

glue

oil pastels, chalk pastels, crayons, whatever you have


Instructions:

    1. Have children look at images eyes and noses on note cards practicing how they look. This can be done when children are arriving one day or if children get done early with a project.

    2. Use the poster board from the table that already has paint on it. Glue the eyes and nose on the board where you think they should go. Add a nose and ears then begin painting the face.

    3. Cover all the poster board with paint then add details with other drawing materials.

    Tips:

    * This is a great way to use materials you have on hand. It is fun to make the image so big on the poster board.

    * This is a last day activity.




Or just roll up scrap papers and hot glue onto painted cardboard for a cool city!
