• Water
• 3-4 tbs of baking soda
• 1 tsp of dish soap
• 1/2 oz to 2 oz of food colouring
• 1 cup (8 oz) of vinegar

2. Put the water inside of the plastic cup.
3. Fill it about 2/3 full.
4. Add the baking soda, dish soap, and food colouring .
5. While you mix the base ingredients, have the children make a mound out of pea gravel (or you could certainly do this with dirt).

It is essentially easy-grip paint brushes are simple for younger children to grasp and use.
• Chalk Materials - Take art activities outside with fun chalk materials or use chalk on chalkboards indoors. Children will love using sidewalk chalk and paint to create colorful works of art.
• Clay, Dough, Modeling Materials – Most children fun using their hands to make creative statues and models with dough and modeling clay. Ensure that supervision of creativity with rollers, cutters, and texture kits is administered.
• Collage and Craft Materials – This offers a number of art supplies for any collage or craft projects, including craft sticks, feathers, pipe cleaners, yarn, glitter, stencils, and much more.
• Glue, Tape, and Adhesives – These can help children keeping their project together. They also reduce the chance of messes occurring by using washable glue or easy-to-use glue

First paragraph: Name the main ingredients.
Second paragraph: In a sentence or two, describe making the volcano.
List the properties of your clay.
What were the most positive properties?
What were the most negative properties?
Third paragraph: What would be the best kinds of objects to make from your clay?
Would you recommend this clay? Why?
The sheet also asks students to describe how it feels to make and model the clay. Could it be molded? Would it roll into a proper ball in their hands? Did it stick to the table top? Did it crumble? Did it dry completely if the model was thick? Would it be best for making, ornaments, or creating free-form objects?
By considering these questions, students make a connection between various properties and the kinds of objects that can be made with the resulting
...top of another one. During this quarter of ceramics I learned ceramics is only fun if you make your artwork with fun if not you’ll wouldn’t like it and you work won't come out so great as you want it to be. The process of wedging clay is another important one because you want your clay to close in the molecules so that you wouldn’t be working with air bubbles inside the clay. Another important technique is called wet wipe work where you want your clay to sustain moisture so that the clay wouldn’t become thick as your working on your pot. The idea is that you want your pot to be thick enough so that when you fire your pottery it wouldn’t explode.
counting them, and shape by moulding different shapes out of it. It also helps children
HYPOTHESIS: My hypothesis is that none of the Crayola colors are pure colors because they are a mixture of other color components.
Teaching using creative methods can help develop the whole child. It can make learning experiences more exciting, more relevant, create different contexts for learning, al...

Now, on your own, take some time to prepare the items. This may require you to look around your house. You do not need to buy any items. Instead, you can make them using recycled materials. As preparation may take some time, do set aside a few days before the play day to prepare the items. Try not to let your children see that you are preparing them. Do not kill the fun! Also, identify what words should your child learn in this theme. It can be nouns, verbs or adjectives.
Are you at a loss for something sensory for young kids to play with at home during the day? Buying an expensive product from the store is not necessary when you can make a lot of things at home. One idea that you may want to try is to make a homemade slime
with a base. This is the form of the object; a clay pot has certain
I chose the nail to attach the wheel because the wheel will roll better. I covered the project with masking tape so the paint would show more. I chose cardboard because it is easy to work with and it is also quite strong. The rulers are there because they are perfectly straight and you get better results when everything is perfect and precise. I chose the motor because it shows that the model is a prototype. I used rubber bands because they are stretchy and have plenty of potential. I put clay for those tiny details that matter. I put down a Stanley knife because you can’t cut cardboard with normal
Children are not forgotten, there will be a range of modelling materials, such as play dough and bread dough, for them to explore and create their own models. For a bit of extra physical activity, the children usually love a ride on the 'parent powered' merry-go-round, made from recycled materials, and other activities.
Preschoolers are energetic. When indoors they are expected to use walking feet and indoor voices. Being outdoors is for running, exerting physical exercise, experiencing with natural objects, and socializing. In the middle of the outdoor environment would be a large climbing structure with slides, tunnels, low monkey bars, rock wall with a rope, stationary cycle, boogie board for balancing. Over the climbing structure would be a roof because on hot days the play structure could become too hot and the children may not want to use the climbing structure for this reason. The purpose of the climbing structure is to learn cooperation, negotiating, hand eye coordination and large muscle movement (rock wall, ladder, monkey bars). The stationary cycle develops coordination. The boogie boards helps with balancing and if more than one child is one the boogie board they must use team work to balance on the boogie board together. The tunnel will allow children to relax feel like or feel like they can go in a tunnel when they want some privacy. In this area their stairs and a ramp with braille writing. Most important the climbing structure is just plain fun. There is so much to do on the climbing structure.
...sticks from the containers. I will model how to roll the tin can and catch it to encourage them to crawl or walk. I will also show them how to open and close the containers. Challenges, I will challenge the infants to pull or push the sticks through the plastic lids. Telling, explaining and informing, while the children open, close, pull, push or roll the containers, I will name them what they are doing or playing with.
Encourage children to use their imagination when creating stick and glue shapes and creatures with their collection of colorful

There are two types of pottery; a bowl and decorative piece of clay. A bowl can only be done by a pottery wheel while decorative piece of clay are best done by hands. Whatever the choice you have made, just make sure create a hollow on the pottery and vent hole for air flow during firing.
