FALL ART SUGGESTIONS

 

PINE NEEDLE BRUSH ART
Take a small handful of pine needles and tie them together with floss, or string.
These will be used as painting brushes.

Have children dip the pine needle brush into a plate with red, yellow and orange paint and paint with the brush on a large sheet of white paper.

I hang up the needle brushes along with the art work, to show parents how the pictures were created.

MONTHLY COLLAGE
Each month we create a different colored collage. In September our color is red.
I cut out a large apple shape and hang it up.
During the month, each parent and child brings in a red item, which they attach to our red apple collage.
At the end of each month, I hang the collage on the wall as part of a color collage boarder.

FALL TREE DISPLAY
Create a large display tree on a bulletin board for displaying children’s art work.

Take brown grocery bags and tear them into large pieces.

Then crumble the pieces and staple them onto the board into the shape of a tree.
Decorate your tree with fall leaves painted by your children.
