  1. we did bracelets out of beads we purchased at walmart. We also got the cords and every one made there own it was lots of fun. We also did crosses out of pop sickle sticks we glued them and painted and sprinkle with glitter. The kids really love these.


  2. Make a pet rock.  Get a rock, about the size of your fist.  Then paint the entire thing and glue on a nose, eyes, ears, and whiskers.

  3. We still look highly upon open ended art projects for PreK.  We want them to explore the materials, etc.

    *  Collages are great.  You can vary the materials to keep interest. Can be done on cardboard, construction paper, big poster board, a theme-related block shape etc.  Great for scissor skills as well.  Allowing free cutting of colorful foam is really neat on a black background.

    * painting of any kind is very beneficial.  And there is such a variety of ways to do it.  At an easel, at the table, paper or cardboard on a wall, with paint brushes, with fingers, with homemade painting tools, string painting, painting with textured materials, painting with primary colors, painting with a color plus white or black, water color painting, sponge painting, etc.

    * Color mixing is a great "science activity" that can be turned into an art project.  I use ice cube trays and put a bit of water in some of the "cubes" and add the three primary colors.  Use eyedroppers to mix.  Of course they usually turn the color brown eventually.  The neat thing is you can have them drop it onto a coffee filter and all the colors will show.  :-)  Turn them into butterflies, flowers, etc.

    * Do a dots/bingo markers are a very simple activity that this age likes.

    * Butterfly Blots:  Fold a simple butterfly pattern in half (cut out of construction paper), use poster or tempera paints and a qtip to make a design on one half.  Then fold the other half on top and press down.  Open up to a beautiful butterfly.  Can even discuss symmetry.

    As for other activities:  sensory and dramatic play are among the top favorites.  :-)  I use a plastic wading pool and a plastic dish tub and provide many different materials from a bean mixture to pom poms.  Provide different "tools" to explore with.

    "Prop Boxes/Suitcases" are very exciting for young children and allows their imagination to take off with dramatic play.
