My Project
Our students are embarking on a vibrant and tactile art project designed to engage their senses and spark creativity. Each child will select their favorite colors to dye sand, experiencing the textures and hues firsthand. This hands-on activity not only enhances their sensory development but also introduces them to the basics of color mixing and artistic expression.
Using their custom-colored sand, the children will create unique artworks by applying glue to sturdy paper or cardboard and sprinkling the sand to form their designs.
This process encourages fine motor skills and allows for individual expression. Once completed, these masterpieces will be proudly displayed or taken home as heartfelt gifts for their parents, showcasing the children's creativity and the skills they've developed through this engaging activity
