Hey, there’s
no shame in the fact that you want to run the other way, screaming, when your
little artist says, “Mommmmmmy! I want to paint. Now!” Seriously, who has time
to wipe paint-covered finger prints from their walls, tables, chairs and
floors?
Okay, so you’re
thinking, “But, aren’t I supposed to let my child explore all things
process-based?” Yep. I’m completely for it. I spent the better part of a decade
bringing process art activities to parents and children as a museum-based arts
educator. That said, as a mom, I totally understand the, “I don’t want that
mess in my house” mentality. There were plenty of moms who brought their kids
to our museum classes for that exact reason.
Sometimes
you really don’t mind the messy art projects. But, even if it’s okay in your
house – when you travel to grandma’s or take the kiddos to your in-laws, it
might not be. That’s where painting with clay comes into play. Your kids can
get a fine motor workout, explore different textures, blend colors and create a
‘finger painting’ without ever actually touching paint. Instead of the typical
temperas, you’re going to swap in modeling clay!
Your child can
try this art activity on its own. Or, you can add another layer to it and
create Halloween art. How? Check out the easy (and almost mess-free) process…
Here’s What
You’ll Need:
·
Soft
modeling clay – I’m not saying you should go into the craft store and unwrap
every box of clay. But, I have been known to feel a box or two (or more) of
clay. I’ve also returned clay for being way too hard. It shouldn’t feel like a
rock. If it does (or won’t spread at all) being it back.
·
Card
stock paper or cardboard (cut the side off of a box)
Here’s What
to Do:
1. Pull the
clay apart into dime-sized pieces. This makes it easier for your child to
spread.
2. Finger
paint! Your child can press the clay (piece by piece) onto the board. Then, she
can use her fingers to spread it out. Add more colors to mix and blend them.
3. Press
googley eyes into the clay, making a monster masterpiece for Halloween.
Call it a
monster, a ghost or whatever you want – it’s artsy Halloween fun!
