These crayon cuties were created a couple of weeks ago, by Kindergarten! I found the idea on Instagram, from @artfunwithms.c. Here's how we created them!
Materials:
4.5" x 12" 90 lb paper
Tru-ray construction paper
glue sticks
Sharpies
Day 1: I demonstrate how to paint their paper. We don't want to mix a whole bunch of colors together, and make a puke crayon!! EEEWWWWwwwww they all say 😆 I tell them, you can choose colors in the same family, but don't mix cool colors with warm colors! After I go through my demo I give them their paper to get started. While they're painting, we read The Day the Crayons Quit, by Drew Daywalt.
Day 2: We glue black strips to the top and bottom, and use them for arms and legs. I give them circles to glue on for their eyes, and they draw the face with a Sharpie marker. I love all the different expressions that they create!
We hung ALL of them up for Night of the Arts, and they looked sooooo cute!!
