Spiky Ball Sculptures

We gathered these spiky balls from the ground outside.  I don't know what tree they come from but there are a ton of them on the ground. 

The children stuck a toothpick them and into a block of Styrofoam.  I gave them glue paint and collage materials to make fun sculptures.  

Pasta Art

We used pasta that I colored in the art room and recycled cardboard pieces to make pasta art.  I love the visual appeal of the art trays with the same colored pasta. 

Kool-aid Painting

This week, we had some fun with painting.  The children mad their own paint from kool-aid packets, flour, and water.  

We experimented with color and thickness by adding different elements.  Our paintings came out amazing and smelled really good!
