CREATIVE MATERIALS
There are many things you may have around your house that can turn into art materials. First, save the boxes from cereal, crackers, etc. You can ask a grown up to cut the box front and back out which will give you nice pieces of cardboard that can be used for a variety of art projects. Save the plastic lids and create your own assorted sizes of tracers to get you started with art projects. You can practice overlapping, as well as have a starting place for all kinds of projects. Junk mail, old magazines, wrapping paper, really any kind of paper can be used in art--- from collages, to painting, sculpture and weaving---recycled art is something to get excited about. And, take your old crayons and remove the wrappers for great rubbing crayons! Look at the world around you creatively!!!
