SINGLE LINE SCRIBBLE ART CHALLENGE!

Instructions:

First draw your single line scribble with black marker or pencil. The goal is to scribble across the entire page in one continuous line without picking up your marker. The lines can cross, curve, whatever you feel like!
Draw three large shapes over your scribble line. You can draw circles, squares, triangles, or another 2D shapes you prefer. For a more advanced project, try 3D shapes like pyramids or cylinders.
Next, pick 3 sets of two colour coordinated markers. Colour in the shapes with the markers.

Create your own Leaf Characters!

Using a vivid, felt, paint or what ever you have available, create your own leaf characters.

Give them eyes, noses, mouths, hair, make them as interesting as you can! Give your leaf creature a name or you could even make leaf characters based on your family!

You can create stories for your leaf creatures and share them with us.

Try some Yoga…

Indoor Scavenger Hunt!

Have a go at finding all the items on this list!

You don’t have to put them all in a bag and the snack at the end is optional – maybe check with an adult first 🙂

If you want an extra challenge you could time yourself and see how long it takes you to locate all the items…

Have a great day!
