Ok, now back at it, you'll need a few items and creativity. You can use any tactile items: Q-tips, cut straws, dry pasta, twigs, tiny stones, sand, cloth, etc. Check it out below!

The Steps
For some, summer school/programs may be on the horizon, including two of our kiddos. We’ve enjoyed later bedtimes and a few late start mornings. We decided on this craft to help represent some of the fun summer activities we’ve done before and some we hope to do again.
Your child can add whatever they’d like: water skiing, hula hooping, jump roping, carnival visit, traveling, dance, amusement parks, educational program, etc. and then work in the tactile items.
Decide which message you’d like: “School’s Out!” or “School’s Out 4 Summer”
2. Write the message out and then proceed with drawing your activities.
Naomi decided to create a school bus out of the “School’s Out” phrase and then draw a campsite.
3. Use the tactile items with the drawings to create a raised or 3D effect. Glue on.
I chose different activities like kite flying, beach time, camping and skating. Of course summer wouldn’t be complete without Popsicle’s.
4. Let it dry 5-10 min.
That’s it!
Happy crafting
Amanda and Naomi
