Contact_FullName: Brissa Berkovits Contact_Email: brissab@yahoo.com Idea: Create a tree You will need construction paper, sponges, paint (red, yellow, orange and green) and white glue. Cut out of brown paper the trunk of a tree. Have the children glue it onto another sheet of paper. Then with the sponges dip it into the paint and make the leaves. Contact_FullName: Brissa Berkovits Contact_Email: brissab@yahoo.com Area: Tu' BiShvat-Art Idea: Create a Tissue Paper Tree You will need construction paper, white glue, and tissue paper. Pre cut the trunk of a tree. have the children glue it onto a sheet of paper. Then have the children scrunch up pieces of tissue paper to make balls. Dip it in the glue and place it on the paper. The focus of any art experience is the process not the end product. 5-30-00For Shavuot, we make a table centerpiece with the kids (I have 2's). We paint a small paper plate one color and a toilet paper roll another color. Glue the roll to the plate in the shape of a vase. I cut out foam board (different colors) in the shape of different flowers and have the kids decorate with sequins and glitter glue. About 3-4 flowers per vase. Attach pipe cleaners as stems. Hint: You have to use a strong craft glue on the foam. Elmer's won't work.
ideaWe plant grass seeds in a clear plastic cup. The children do the planting-add the soil-sprinkle the seeds-water the seeds-Then the children make their own tree on a 1/4 piece of white construction paper (at circle after discussing Tu B'Shevat the children learn how to make a simple tree) The tree is then stapled on to a craft stick and inserted into soil. When the grass begins to grow it looks like it's growing around the tree. The child really love this!
