Seeing as it was Bonfire, or Guy Fawkes Night on the 5th November, I attempted some firework art with my dear nursery lovelies!
We used cardboard tubes, scissors, a spikey plastic ball, fluorescent paint, glitter and black paper!
First the children feather cut the ends of their cardboard tubes, and flattened them out to make a flower-like effect. Voila! They made their own stampers!
These stampers were pressed into some paint.
These were then used as stampers and they printed imaginary fireworks on a black ‘sky! To create another way to make marks, they rolled the plastic balls in the paint then either dropped them on the paper, or rolled them around on it to make other firework like marks!
This one was mine, that was created in front of the children as an example.
A little glitter at the end while the paint was still wet ensured a sparkly firework display picture!
If only I could show you photos of them actually doing it, I would, but alas I am not allowed! But they made wonderful paintings!
But I Smile Anyway...
