Winter Lights at Night
What fun it is to see how people decorate for holidays! Kids construct their own miniature scenes with twinkling lights and candles in windows.
1. Cover your work area with newspaper. Paint the inside of a recycled box to resemble night with Crayola® Washable Kid's Paint and Paint Brushes. Dry.
2. On black construction paper draw a house, church, or apartment building with Crayola Metallic Colored Pencils. Add lights, candles, and other seasonal decorations with Crayola Gel Markers. Cut out your building with Crayola Scissors. Using Crayola School Glue, attach it to the box. Dry.
3. Glue black construction paper in front of the building to resemble a street or road. Use a white marker to give the appearance of snow.
4. Draw and cut out trees and holiday ornaments. Cover them with marker dots to resemble sparkling snow and winter lights. Glue them to the front of the building.
