Today for the children's arts and crafts lesson we used an idea from the Mister Maker book. It was nice and messy and they loved it!
Just four simple steps and you too can have yourself a wool doodle :-)
1. Cut a long piece of wool and dip it into a bowl of glue. Make sure it's nice and covered. Place the wool on some card (we used a canvas from the 99p store).
2. Start to make a doodly pattern with the wool. When you are happy with your pattern, leave it to dry.
3. Now it's time to make your picture look colourful. Use paint to colour in some of the spaces and all around your wool shapes.
4. Paint glue on bits of the picture. Sprinkle glitter over the gluey bits and shake off the extra glitter onto a piece of paper.
The children were so pleased with their wool doodle canvases that they insisted I hung them up on their bedroom walls immediately!
