Exploring Materials

This week was about exploring common items in creative ways. 

We drew on boxes and cardboard and had a table dedicated to tape. The children loved playing with the different colors, sizes and stickiness of our many tape rolls. They also explored taping different types and textures of fabrics and sometimes just had fun seeing how long the tape could get. 

On the easels, we switched from dark paint on light paper to light paint on dark paper for a different contrast. 

We had a table to explore cutting many different types of paper and ribbon. 

Our tubes, boxes and balls provided numerous ways to create slides, pathways and tunnels and explore motion.
