Foil Art

Has your little one ever tried foil art?

It is simple to do, fun and can be as educational as you desire. 

Such as activity - 

 Improves FINE MOTOR SKILLS

Develops LANGUAGE SKILLS through discussion

Improve childrens understanding of OBJECT PERMANENCE

Here is how I set up for foil art - 

All you need is - 

* Cardboard

* Tape

* Tin foil

*Pens (I recommend sharpies for this activity)

Wrap the foil around the cardboard and secure with the tape. 

Try and have the shiniest size exposed. 

Allow your children to be as creative as they can be. 

They might like to practise writing out spelling words, create special signs or just see where their creativity takes them. Sometimes it's a good idea to not create rules and just give them the freedom to do whatever they feel they would like. 

Here is a picture I did of a house. 

This activity is incredibly simple, fun and enjoyable to do.
