"Heroes Wear Masks," Drawing Activity
At Learning Years Day School - Hawthorn Farm, the kids learned about how with COVID-19 being an ongoing concern it is important to wear a facemask. It was discussed how another group of people who wear masks are superheroes--meaning when we wear a facemask we are just like a superhero ourselves! With this in mind, the children did a fun drawing activity where they imagined themselves as superheroes wearing facemasks.
Heroic Masks
The kids took a paper plate and coloring pencils. They then drew themselves as heroes, using the ridges of the paper plates to give the part of their drawing with their hair a little bit of extra texture. Doing this activity helped make wearing a mask seem less scary and more like a, "Heroic," thing to do! The children felt like they were superheroes who helped protect other people with their mask-wearing and enjoyed coming-up with a heroic persona as well. After making the craft the kids went outside and pretended to be heroes--it was great fun!
