Welcome to Back Yard Club!
Monday we didn't have the camera out, but here's what we were up to:
We always start out with some songs and stories.
Our projects included
Mono prints
(smear paint, draw in it with your finger, print on paper)
Nature Sticks
(A Native American tradition,
decorate the stick and place it in your garden to thank the earth for its gifts!)
Wood people puppets
Free play with clay
Art easels--painting and drawing--are also out every day.
After sack we played read "The Very Busy Spider" and made a giant yarn spider web!
We then took turns playing the spider and the fly who is called...lunch!
Tuesday
Today our projects included:
Blob painting
Dream catchers
Bean collages
Pinch pots
After snack we took a nature walk and looked for items with great texture.
These would be pressed into clay to be like fossilized impressions.
Today we did some folk dancing!
Here are some pictures of "We're Floating Down the River"
where there just happens to be a lot of jumping. :)
We also introduced the kids to the story we will act out on Friday, Caps for Sale.
And in case you didn't know, your kids like to be monkeys!
