Safari Sketches
Kids go on safari when they follow their animal instincts with art adventures. Put these booklets on your survival list.
1. Cut a long, narrow piece of construction paper with Crayola® Scissors. Fold the paper accordion style into a booklet.
2. With Crayola Twistables Crayons, sketch jungle safari images on the front cover. You might choose animals, tree branches, and plants in the rain forest.
3. Cover your work area with newspaper. Brush a thin coat of green Crayola Washable Kid's Paint over the cover to represent the jungle's green foliage. Watch the waxy crayon colors pop out of the jungle! Dry.
4. Tie string or raffia to close your Safari Sketches book.
5. Fill the inside of your book with drawings of animals that you see at the zoo or game preserve, in videos, books, or on the Internet. With an adult, take a walk outside and draw what you see in your backyard or city park.
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.
Crayola Washable Paints—Not for use as body/face paint.
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.
