"Paper plate animals" was the theme for our Saturday workshop in the mall. At last! We'd been dreaming of it since a long time!
Направихме три мостри. За жалост, най-харесаната - котето, остана без снимка! Но пък ще добиете повече от добра представа за него, като видите галерията от котета по-долу...
We made three samples. Unfortunately we missed to take a pic of the favourite one - the cat, but you'll see it in the kids' creations below...
Преди това обаче вижте новите членове на фамилия Странна птица!:)
Here're the new family members of the Odd bird!:)
И някои от приятелите на рибката!:)
And some of the Fish's friends!:)
А ето ги и тях - кажи-речи половината котета... Сладури са, нали? Как ли би звучал техният шарен хор?:D
And here they are - the cats and kittens... Actually - not all of them. Can you imagine their choir?:D
За наша радост се появиха и други същества! Ще направим опит да открием повече някой следващ път.
We were happy to see some other creatures jumping out of the paper plates! We plan a special workshop to search for more.
Хубава нова седмица! Нашата определено ще започне с настроение!!
Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate it today! And have a lovely holiday! Our Easter is next week.
Happy Easter to you, too.
ОтговорИзтриванеI love your paper plate animal creations.
xx
Thank you, Rick! Your words always encourage me!:)
ИзтриванеRossichka, what wonderful imaginations your students have. Paper plates are wonderful starting points for colors and shapes. I am also thinking that if a certain kind of paper fastener, perhaps called a brad?, the various paper attachments could be jointed, and ...those charming little animals could become puppets!
ОтговорИзтриванеHappy Easter, dear Rossichka. I did get over to the Fifth Avenue parade and saw so much imagination on display. Lots of fun. xo
Hello, Frances! Last night I took a glimpse at your photos from the Parade - my head really swirled from the variety of hats! I will go to see them today one by one.
ИзтриванеYes, you are absolutely right - we could create paper plate puppets, thank you!:)
I hope you enjoy your Easter holiday!xx
Great as always!
ОтговорИзтриванеCongratulations, I love thinking you guide the children, but they develop their own creativity. Often, teachers give to the young learners, "too many instructions" and children all do the same work, this is not the case! Congratulations on your work, dear friend! Happy Easter and nice week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you, Roberto! One of the reasons to make samples, is to stimulate the shy kids... And of course every time we have as a goal to achieve certain skills, to use new materials or to combine the already known-ones. We are so happy when we see the fruits of the provoked imagination of children and adults!:) Hugs from us for both of you!
ИзтриванеIt is a pleasure to look at the kid's creations! You can see it was a big pleasure to make them!
ОтговорИзтриванеHappy easter to you! Why next week?
Byeeee!~ Love, hedwig!!!!
The short answer about Easter is: we, the Orthodox Christians, follow the Julian calendar, while the Catholics follow the Gregorian calendar.
ИзтриванеThanks, Hedie, hope you have a nice Easter holiday!
How lovely. I do like the different way each one turned out. Happy Easter to you.
ОтговорИзтриванеYes, such a variety of characters! I love Easter, tomorrow I'll decorate the house. Hope you are still in a festive mood!:)
Изтриванеthese are so very adorable
ОтговорИзтриванеand look like such fun things to make!
Aren't they?
ИзтриванеJust take the scissors and try ... Fun guaranteed!:)
Thank you for your lovely words, as ever, dear friend.x
ОтговорИзтриванеWhat wonderful creations you've made with some very lucky children. Of course, the cats are my favourite and I would love to be surrounded by so many! The children you teach are so talented, and it's wonderful to see their art. Thank you.xxx
Our Theatre group has been running creative workshops for a fifth year now. We found out that the adults also enjoy crafting, so sometimes they not only help their kids (when they are too little), but turn into participants. Not once or twice we've been told about the relaxing effect they feel...:)
ИзтриванеTHANK YOU, Kimberley!xx
How creative you are! love all the children work of art, never thought how great are could come out from a paper plate! love them all, I'm sure these kids will remember how fun is always working with you!
ОтговорИзтриванеWe'd seen some paper plate creatures here and there before. We made them our way, and the bird was a completely new idea (many more to come on a suitable occasion)... Thank you, Ale for your "good eye" and kind words!:))
