Kids love art and they look forward to it. If kids look forward to something you'll have their attention all day long.
This activity only took about twenty minutes. Quick, yet artsy!
What you'll need:
-6"x9" inch piece of white construction paper for each child (watercolor paper is better, but this works)
-7"x10" inch piece of construction paper in a different color for matting
-black crayons
-black Sharpies
-watercolors
Using a pencil, have students draw a large oval for the ladybug's body. Then have the students draw a line down the center of the body. Add a half circle for the head, antennae, and six legs. There you go!
Paint the ladybug with the watercolors.
Let the ladybug dry for a few minutes (I read a book to pass the time).
And now you have a beautiful ladybug!
Mat each students' painting on a larger piece of construction paper. Hang and let others wonder how you do it!
I love using watercolors! I saw your comment on my blog! Hope we get to meet in Vegas! =)
