For her Abrakadoodle class on Saturday, Anya made a Nature Doodle. Using bits of leaves, flowers and sticks, the kids came up with pictures of things in nature and used coloured sand to fill in the background. So Anya had a tree, some grass, a dragonfly and a stick insect (according to Adrian) in her picture. I think she enjoyed this session because of the sand but I can’t imagine doing this at home because the sand gets everywhere and cleaning up would be quite a nightmare! When she’s developed better hand-eye coordination, she’ll probably enjoy working on the sand art kits (the ones where bits of wax paper are peeled off a sticky picture) that she can do in the shopping centres where someone else is in charge of cleaning up. :)
