Art in the Garden

| 0 comments

IMG_0837[1] IMG_0838[1] This morning we tried a new type of collage -garden art.  First of all we had to forage for exciting things to put on our pictures.  The garden is full of interesting leaves, stones, sticks and flowers.  We then used scissors, glue and sticky tape to create some exciting new pictures.  Some children chose to collaborate and work on the same piece together, and others preferred to work on their own.  “Look mine’s even got a wee beastie on it!” said Struan.  Luckily – we managed to blow the beastie off the paper before it trod in the glue and was set forever in a pool of pva glue.  Working with natural materials provides a great sensory experience.  We used 4 of our 5 senses -we were far too sensible to put any of the things we had found in our mouths to taste them!
