Popsicle Stick Art

Well, this challenge didn't produce the most beautiful artwork, but Elliott and Will sure enjoyed eating the popsicles to provide the key supply - popsicle sticks. We each glued three sticks together to make these silly snakes and then we painted simple patterns to give them each a unique 'skin.' This was a pretty simple project and then we moved on to homemade Father's Day cards! Elliott and Will both have such a special bond with their Dad and I was so happy to see them put such thought and care into these cards. As a starting point, I asked them both to draw some of the things they like to do best with their dad.

Here's the simple supply list for the snakes: Popsicle sticks, craft glue or hot glue, Crayola washable paints, paintbrushes, and cardboard.
