  • A Box of Things!…

    On Friday, our little artists chose from glitter, feathers, pom-poms, ribbon, stickers, and markers and made collages!  The artists had a lot of fun and the collages turned out great!

  • Modern Art…

    Yesterday, our little artists made art with popcorn!  The popcorn was sprinkled with Kool-Aid powder to give it some color.

  • Look What You Can Make with Ice!…

    Today, our little artists painted with ice cubes!  Our artists colored the paper with an ice cube, then sprinkled Kool-Aid powder on top, and used a wet paintbrush to spread the powder.  They turned out to be really neat!  Once the paintings were dry, they were mounted on black paper.

  • Let’s Make a Print!…

    Yesterday, our little artists talked about colors again.  They chose either blue or yellow paint, and then painted bubble wrap!  They made a print of the bubble wrap on a piece of construction paper.

  • The Crayons are Bouncing!…

    Today, on our first day of “Little Artists at Work”, our little artists talked about their favorite colors!  They dipped crayons into different colors of paint they like, then placed the crayons in a pitcher lined with paper.  They shook the containers very fast!

  • A Day at the Zoo!…

    Today, our little zoo keepers made “zoo food”!  Our little zoo keepers put Cheerios, raisins, oats, powdered sugar, and cereal puffs into a plastic bag.  I’m sure if we took a field trip to the Cincinnati Zoo, the animals would love to eat this zoo food!
