Make Art Activities with Tissue Paper, Watercolor, and Chalk
Storytelling is one activity that children enjoy. Forming this strategy as a regular habit can enhance their imagination but not their skills. Through art activities, kids can learn new skills; by providing only limited materials like tissue paper, glue, cardboards, and chalk to work on, these young ones are given the opportunity to widen their ability to construct something out of minimal materials.
By giving kids a little guidance, different art structures and ideas can be done, and you will be surprised on how creative these kids can become. Also, using recycled tools coming from businesses that send out promotions, you can collect different
postcard sizes or business card materials for the art activity.
1. Favorite storybook part: By making kids pick a favorite part of the story you just read, and applying them through art helps them recall what the storyline was all about. Try picking books from Leo Lionni wherein the storyline is based on abstract art. Have kids choose a picture or favorite part of the story, then, after the children pencil draw, you can guide by sticking glue on the insides of the shapes. Have them stick pieces of tissue paper on them; and with watercolor, a full blend of colors form the art piece just like in the book.
2. Snow sandpaper: Pick on books that revolve around snow like Ezra Zak Keat’s The Snowy Day or Alyssa Satin Capucilli’s Biscuit’s Snowy Day. With sandpaper, have kids fill in the board paper with white chalk for the snow. Then, on top of the chalk, they can dip the pencil’s eraser on acrylic paint and form dots for the shaded and colored areas.
3. Crayon and paint: With books that have larger graphics such as Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Clifford books, you can ask kids to draw the dog or caterpillar figure with crayons. Remind them, or you can help them, to color very dark and to fill up every single space. Then with watercolor, paint on top of the crayon. Children will enjoy the magical effect on the watercolor not affecting the crayon part and they can very much blend and practice painting in any style or stroke.
Teaching children art activities related to the book they just learned about can help them digest better the other meanings found in the story. Also, with different approaches introduced to them such as 3D art will give them new skills, and perhaps they can come up with their own ideas in the future.
