Here's a funny joke about an artist's studio and instructions for an art project called "Paper Plate Snowman".  


Joke About Art and Art Supplies

    Q: Why was the artist’s studio so cold?
    A: Because it had a lot of drafts.


Project:  Paper Plate Snowman

Materials Needed:

  • Disposable paper plates
  • Color Swell paints, markers, and/or crayons
  • Color Swell scissors
  • Color Swell glue
  • Construction paper
  • Cotton balls (optional)
  • Safety mat: newspaper or cloth (recommended)

Instructions:

  • Step 1: Glue the smaller plate on top of the larger one to create a snowman shape.
  • Step 2: Cut out a hat, eyes, and buttons from black paper and a carrot-shaped nose from orange paper.
  • Step 3: Glue the hat, eyes, nose, and buttons (and cotton balls, if using them) onto the snowman.
  • Step 4: Use markers to draw a smile and add details, like arms or snowflakes.

Tips for Success:

  • Supervision: Depending on the age group, adult supervision may be needed, especially when using scissors, glue, or any potentially messy materials.
  • Encouragement: Encourage creativity and experimentation. Art projects are a great opportunity for kids to explore their imagination.
  • Display: Once completed, display the artwork proudly! It boosts children's confidence and encourages further creativity.
