MAKE & CREATE

Color story challenge

Pick three colors before creating. When the picture is finished, invite your child to tell a story about what each color became.

  1. Choose a theme: space, jungle or under the sea.
  2. Make one rule: every shape needs a name.
  3. Host a gallery: display the creation and let the artist explain it.
