Trending Thursday: Thumb Print Tree Kids Diy

                                     THUMB PRINT TREE (KIDS DIY)

AGE GROUP: 7- 10 year old

Hello there everyone, Our Crafting Thursday is here, In this blog i am gonna tell you how to make a thumb print tree with your kids step by step, with all the reference images 

MATERIALS REQUIRED:

A4 cardstock ( white/off-white) 

Green poster paint and a thick paint brush (no.08)

A4 card stock white

Pencil 

Eraser

Colour Pencils/ Markers


Let's begin with the Step no.1:

Draw a rough sketch of tree with your child, so he/she gets to know you are also involved.


STEP NO.2:  Put green paint on your child's thumb with the help of thick paint brush.


STEP NO.3: Allow your child to explore his/her thumb prints over hand drawn tree.



STEP NO.4: Draw few fruits, as I have made some apples, with help of kids in my class.


STEP No.5: Now let your kids colour around the fruits, and outline them with marker, as well as colour the tree trunk brown to complete the picture with a natural look.



HAVE LOOK AT THE OUTCOMES:


           
                                             

BENEFITS OF THE ACTIVITY:


  • Kids learn about the textures nature have given within them, while they stamp their thumbs to create illusion of leaves
  • Parents can frame the thumb prints in form of a painting and place them on the wall as a painting, kids will love the appreciation.
