Miss Ava loves sparkles!! Anything with sparkles will do 💗 This art project was fun and simple, and is amazing at strengthening little hands and promoting a little fine motor development along the way. All of our practical life learning shines during arts and crafts time.
I did some basic pencil line drawings of snowflakes for Ava to trace in glue. I have seen these done on trays to be removed and used as hanging ornaments - we will make these as well because they are sooo pretty!
Sparkle away!!
We keep the majority of our sparkles in salt shakers that I found at the dollar store. Many are starting to come this way now though, and that is so awesome! You can see ours are well used.
If it gets tough to squeeze the glue bottle, you can always use a fine brush, and they can paint the flakes in glue.
Lots of action going on here with pinching, pouring and shaking sparkles!!
Such a beautiful creation 😍
