Christmas bauble
Our kindergarten children are loving all the Christmas fun lately. Using left over paper shopping bags, we cut these into big baubles using the handle as the top. The children loved being creative to decorate these with paint and sparkles.
This activity allows children to use their imagination and creativity and not be confined to specifics. It also allows them to develop fine motor skills and a sense of pride in their completed art. Another great learning opportunity from this is the correlation between recycling - reusing the paper bags and not just throwing them away.
We are looking forward to discovering many more ideas to use in our classroom.
