Tissue Paper Scrunch Egg

tissue paper scrunch egg
We made tissue paper scrunch eggs for our fine motor project this week.  I printed the pattern on cardstock and cut the egg out.  I cut various colors of tissue paper into long strips and the children cut them into small squares.

The children applied glue drops to the egg and then scrunched up pieces of tissue paper and pressed them on to the egg.

This project is wonderful for fine motor development because the children have to separate the tissue paper squares ... scrunch them ... and then press them on to the glue drops.  You can download the egg pattern for this project below:

tissue paper heart craft project for preschool and kindergarten
We made tissue paper hearts which is a really great craft project for working on fine motor and scissor skills.  You will need the heart pattern ... tissue paper ... scissors ... glue ... and sequins.

The first step is to print the pattern on cardstock paper and cut it out. Next cut or tear tissue paper into small squares.  Apply glue drops to the inside of the heart and press on the tissue paper squares.

If some of the tissue paper hangs over the heart you can cut off the extra. The last part is to apply glue drops on the tissue paper and press on the sequins. You do not have to add sequins but they are wonderful for fine motor development and also add a nice sparkle to the hearts.

I am always trying to make new paint recipes to add to the variety of art materials that we use.  This week I made pudding paint and it was so easy and turned out wonderful!!

You only need to have vanilla pudding and food color.  I used the regular jell-o brand vanilla pudding but different brands will work just as well.

I put half a pudding cup in each paint cup and then added 4-6 drops of food color and mixed them together with craft sticks.  The paint can be used for both
regular paint with brushes and finger painting.  You can see a video by clicking below.

Jello Paint

easy to make jello paint for preschool and kindergarten
We made jello paint and the children really loved it.  It was super easy to do and it smelled so good!! 

You will need:

jello (any brand)
warm water
containers or muffin tin
something to stir with (we used craft sticks)

I started by putting about a third of the package of jello into small container.  I then put in enough warm water just to cover the top of the jello. Next I stirred the water and jello together and repeated with the other colors.

The paint mixture will be granular which will add a nice texture to the painting. It will take a few hours to dry but when it does it has a really nice shine to it. I used regular jello and not the sugar-free kind.

The mixture does thicken over time (hours) but you can always add more warm water or even make a new batch. You can see a video of how I made my jello paint by clicking below:
