stay home, stay creative; collage shapes with kids

By Alice on Monday 6th April 2020

Making is good for your mind and your soul. So while we’re all staying home, stay creative, and get making with your kids…
We’ve been doing a few crafty projects at home and thought I’d share them.

All you need for this one is a bunch of old magazines (we used old tv times from grandma!), some scissors, and glue.
Pick your favourite shape and cut it out in 3 sizes, then collage colour in with your 3 favourite colours.
This one is a star shape coloured with blue, green and orange.

After collaging, you can re-cut the shape neatly from the back and then stick onto your choice of paper/sketchbook.
This one is a heart shape coloured with pink, purple and orange.

p.s If you collage both sides of the shapes, they can also be made into mobiles.
