ARTS & LAUGHS
Big Sister Melissa leads Arts & Laughs participants in a watercolour technique activity over Zoom
In Connect Online: Arts & Laughs, a group of 4-6 Littles come together each week to try out a new craft project together!
From making kaleidoscopes and puppets to watercolour painting and making SLIME, this group has something for anyone who’s creative at heart!
Below are some resources that have been used in prior Arts and Laughs groups:
ARTS & LAUGHS GAMES
Use our pre-set Arts & Laughs themed Jeopardy game in the final week of your group! All the questions and answers come from fun facts about the arts and crafts projects that were completed in previous weeks.
Pervadi’s Kaleidoscope Painter allows Bigs and Littles to create their own unique kaleidoscope patterns right on their screens. We use this game when we make our own kaleidoscopes out of cardboard tubes!
Google Arts and Culture’s Puzzle Party is a multi-player platform that will generate a private link, allowing your whole group to join in to try to create a puzzle together.
