Publisher Description: Enter the world of creativity where children's imaginations soar with this broad spectrum of a total of over 240 open-ended art activities and ideas that encourage each child to participate in an individual and unique art experience using common household items and ordinary art supplies. Scribble Art has been featured on The Health Network TV show, 1,2,3,Grow! and Canadian Y-TV network show Take Part!. If you only need one art book for children, this is it.
When MaryAnn Kohl was teaching, these were the all-time best ideas that worked every time, with all ages. Art -- kids love it and thrive in it, especially when there is no expectation about the finished product. These art ideas give children a push into paints, chalk, crayon, sculpting, or construction, and off they go. You will be amazed at the depth of joy and learning that takes place. There are over 100 main ideas (with another 100+ variations and extensions) in this book for kids to create with no adult models or samples to copy. All you need are the basic art tools like scissors, crayons, glue, flour, salt, paper, tape. Try the Watercolor Salt project, if you want something amazing yet easy to win over any child to art.
Remember when this book was first published as "Scribble Cookies"? This updated version called "Scribble Art" (I guess the word cookies was cute but probably confusing to bookstores) is one of those books that is just perfect for parents with all ages of kids. Each project can be taken to any level, even with middle school or high school kids, all the way down to about age two or even younger with supervision. If you only own one art book, own this one.
