Steps:

  1. Get you paper plate completely wet.

  2. Place your bowls and/or cups upside down(outside if you can, weather permitting. The warmer the weather the better!)

  3. Being careful not to rip your wet paper plate, drape it over one of the bowls and shape into a “melting” looking shape. Use the other bowls (or cups) to help keep the plate in place. 

  4. Let it dry completely! 

  5. Once dry, you can now paint the face of your clock on! 

**If your child is learning to tell time, this is also a great project to help them learn. You can even cut out the hands of the clock and use a brad to secure them onto the middle of clock so that they can move them around.**

Steps:

  1. Draw out and landscape scene, make sure the the ground portion of your drawing only takes up the bottom fourth of your paper. 

  2. Think of animal, draw just the body of the animal up in the top part of the sky portion of your drawing.

  3. Add skinny, long legs to your animal. Make sure the legs (and feet) go all the way to the bottom part of your drawing. 

  4. Get creative, add something (or more than one thing) that would not normally be in this scene. (example: a party hat on the head of your animal)

  5. Finish it off by coloring it!
