MLK Day Craft

A teacher at my preschool did this craft today. I thought it was so cute.

It is just 3 different colored hand prints with, "All children can play together." written on it.

So simple, but such a BIG message!!!!

The more simple the message, the more profound it tends to be...love this and it's deep simplicity!

That is a fine piece of art - I think I would even consider framing it!

Thank you so much for sharing this! We are so blessed to have adopted two children from Taiwan, and we often talk about how God chose beautiful shades of color when making us all different! This is such a great visual for small children. Thanks again for passing this along!

Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

You will need toilet paper roll, scissors, glue, pom-poms, paint or markers or green construction paper for the body (to make the toilet paper roll green), wiggly eyes, chenille stems, green foam sheet or construction paper and a pencil. Have the kids paint the toilet paper roll green. OR you can have them color it with a marker OR just wrap it in green construction paper and glue it. While the paint is drying, I get all the pieces set up to glue on. I used foam sheets to cut out legs but construction paper will work too. For the nose, I cut a triangle out of craft ...
