Making art work is fun and easy.
It is one of the hundred ways to effectively teach children to be creative, patient, and to be a problem solver. Not to mention, it gives them a feeling of self confidence.
I called this artwork today a, Popsickle picture frame.
Materials:
- colored popsickles (12 pieces)
- favourite picture
- glue (a glue that can glue wood)
- twine (8 inches)
- newspaper ( to avoid the mess)
Methods:
put glue in the sides of the sticks, and stick them one at a time till you finish 8 lines of popsickle sticks.
(Make sure to lay the sticks inside out, to prevent the paper sticking to the popsickle sticks)
glue a popsickle stick across the line and the opposite.
glue another popsickle stick vertically on both the opposite sides to form a square. (The hole that formed in the sides will serve to insert the picture).
add a little glue on the back and stick the twine, (it will serve to hold the frame).
and insert your picture.
I hope you like it, give a try with your kids and sure its fun!
Would love to know what you think.
Thank you and wish you all well.
