Color Collector's Portfolio
All kids are artists - they create, are curious, and see the world in a unique way. Children will experiment with color while making this portfolio and then fill it with their work.
1. Fold a large piece of construction paper in half. Glue both sides along the edges with Crayola® School Glue to make a pocket. Dry.
2. To add a portfolio handle, punch two holes at the top of the pocket. Thread a 12-inch piece of yarn through the holes and tie a knot to make a loop.
3. Remove the wrappers from Crayola Crayons. To make crayon rubbings, place raised-surfaced objects such as coins or mats under white paper and rub with the crayon sides.
4. Cut your textures into interesting shapes with Crayola Scissors. Glue the designs onto the front of your portfolio. Pay attention to color schemes and patterns. Add to your design and write your name with Crayola Washable Markers.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.
Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
String-Like Materials—Includes string, raffia, lacing, yarn, ribbon, and other similar material. Children 3 years and younger should not be given any string-like material that is longer than 12 inches. Close adult supervision is essential whenever children use string-like material. When crafts are to be worn around the necks of children 8 years and younger, attach the ends of the “string-like material” with clear adhesive tape, which allows easy release of the bond if the craft becomes entangled or caught on equipment. For children older than 8 years, the ends of the “string-like material” may be tied and knotted.
