Father's Day

These are two crafts that we did with the kids in celebration of Father's Day! 

The beginning of preschool summer camp!

Our first theme of the season is ocean explorers so we had a day of ice cream fun which started off by painting our feet and making them into ice cream cones which thy loved painting their feet and seeing it turn into ice cream. The day followed by coloring ice cream papers and eating ice pops while watching a Clifford episode of "Screaming for Ice Cream." Overall it was a fun day especially making the ice cream feet :)

Easter

Our Easter bunny buckets we made for Easter! They had a lot of fun making them and hunting for the eggs!

St. Patrick's Day

We painted our hands green and into a four leaf clover for St. Patrick's day! The 3 cloves stand for God the Son, God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit.

Dr. Seuss

We have done several crafts this week in celebration of Dr. Seuss's Birthday. We have read books and watched a movie about all the different things from Dr. Seuss. My kids love Thing 1 and Thing 2! We made fishes based off the "one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish" book and made thing 1 and thing 2 out of our hands! We also made a cat in the hat from a paper plate.

President's Day

For President's Day we made a handprint of Abraham Lincoln and a handprint of an eagle. We made hats that said "Happy President's Day" on them and took our pictures. They lived holding the flag while wearing the hat as well!

Children Around The World

We had a theme week on children of the world. We talked about Africa, Mexico, and The Netherlands. We learned about the different children so we made a world displaying all the children that live in different places.

Valentines

These are our last 2 valentine papers that we did. The first one says "thumb body loves you...me" and we put our thumbprints inside of the heart. The second one is an outline of a heart and we finger-painted with red, pink, and purple all around it! The loved doing it and getting paint everywhere :)

Valentine bags

We made our valentine bags and they turned out super cute and they loved glueing on the hearts and picking out a Pom Pom for the nose!

Hearts

We got to color a pair of hearts and then add some glitter which they absolutely love to put on things! The poem that is underneath is
Secret Valentine
"I have a secret valentine
I love so much, I do!
But I can't keep this secret, for
My valentine is-YOU!"

God's Love

We painted our hands red and pink and made them into a flower. Then we made little heart flowers at the bottom. The verse reads "And now these three remain: FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE. But the greatest of these is LOVE." 1 Corinthians 13:13. They turned out very cute!

Valentine Day Cards

We made our handprints into hearts for the front of our cards and added some glitter fun with the saying "be mine". Then on the inside they say I love you on the different hearts.

Valentine's day crafts

We started on our valentines crafts today! We painted our feet and made them into hearts:) the saying is "from the bottom of my heart to the tips of my toes, I love you!" I think they turned out really cute and the loved painting their feet again!

The letters J and K

For our handprints for the letter J we did a jaguar and for K we did a koala!

Christmas Ornaments

We colored our ornament with our crayons first then we added glitter to make our ornament sparkle! They had a lot of fun shaking the glitter on it.

Penguin Feet

We made penguins out of our feet! We painted the inside of their foot white and then around the white was the black. The after it dried I added the arms and face, they turned out pretty cute :)

Christmas books

All of the fun Christmas crafts we did and put them in a folder. We made a Christmas tree from our foot on the front and decorated it with a star and some presents. Then we added a glittery Merry Christmas to the top of the folder! It turned out as a great Christmas book cover :)

Angels

We made our angels out of our feet and our hand prints! The feet is the body and the hands on the wings and we painted out cost for the head and added a halo to it. The verse that I added is Luke 2:9-14 "And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and they were sore afraid. And the angel said into them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign into you; Ye shall find he babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

Candy hands

We made Christmas candy using our handprints! We painted them red to make the twisty part in the candy. The poem in the middle of the candy is "I think you're sweet as candy. Your love always makes me smile. Please keep these hands to remind you, of when I was a sweet little child."

Mitten hearts

We made our handprints inside the mitten cutouts and glued them onto a heart. The saying reads "Cold Hands, Warm Hearts". Then we added some glitter snowflakes on it as well.
