Welcome to our Craft of the Month for May 1999

Apple & Straw Art

Materials:
apples
straws
two different colors of construction paper
3 colors of tempera paint
Apple Art - Slice one apple in half and in different shapes, dip apple in paint and alow child to create pictures

Straw Art - Thin paint by adding water (so that mixture is 1/2 paint and 1/2 water). Pour a small amount of thinned paint on child's paper. Aim the straw and blow the paint all over the paper until it's spread completely. Continue with the next color and so on.

That's it! Simple, but the kids have a blast!
