Sunset Over the Sea
Make a 3-D scene of your favorite beach sunset. Show palm trees, lighthouses, or even crumbling pillars along the Greek coast!
1. What kind of beach sunset will you always remember? Sailboats coming into a harbor? Poseidon's temple on the Agean Sea? Flying a kite on the sand? Wherever it was, here are some ideas for making a 3-D version of your favorite sunset scene.
2. Cover your craft area with recycled newspaper. With Crayola® Scissors, cut watercolor paper to fit inside a box lid. Use Crayola Watercolor Paints to create a sunset-over-the-sea scene. Air-dry the paint.
3. With Crayola School Glue, attach the background to the inside of the box lid.
4. Cut cardboard tubes into palm trees, lighthouses, or pillars, or other scenery. Paint them with Crayola Washable Kid’s Paint. Air-dry tubes.
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.

Recycled Cardboard Tubes—Use paper towel tubes, gift-wrap tubes, or long cardboard tubes that can be cut to any length. Health professionals caution against using recycled toilet paper tubes for arts & crafts projects because of the potential fecal contamination.
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.
