A quick make from todays's #summerholidayartclub but possibly one of the children's favourites! Old jam jar lids, a circle of paper, some pens and some spare magnetic strips.

Today has been a joyous day of arty fun and one of my favourite parts has to be this lovely Printing session with the children in Nursery today. So many skills involved in this and they have all come out so well!

Last week's colourful oil pastel backgrounds for our cat collages. Taking the masking tape off at the end was the most satisfying thing!! Watch this week to see our cats come together!

This morning the #minimonkeys went on a shopping adventure around the world as we read the story My Granny went to Market.
We made kites in Japan, Llamas in Peru, Boomerangs in Japan and dolls in Russia. We also enjoyed some sensory play, shopping role play and the painting easel!
Next week our story is Zog - expect lots of dragon and Lunar New Year activities! Come join us! Suitable for toddlers, preschoolers and their grown ups.

Beautiful colourful birds using oil pastel resist and watercolour from tonight's art club. This weekend is the @rspb #biggardenbirdwatch so we were inspired to create our very own species of bird tonight.

It was just a little bit stormy here yesterday so we stayed at home and painted cats!

After school art club was back in full swing at Meysey Hampton today and it was such a joy to be with my little artists again!
This week we made these beautiful abstract art watercolour calendars.
We practised controlling our pens to draw the lines without going into the border, using line to create space in our work, controlling our brushes and using the right amount of paint. Don't they just look amazing?!

A study of birds with Prep7 children from @hatheropcastleschool last week in preparation for the @rspb #biggardenbirdwatch coming up soon. These beautiful sketches and watercolour birds were created in just one hour! Children had been challenged to carefully focus on the shape of each bird before adding in distinguishing colours.
