The Mom I Want to Be

Shape Stamping 

Dip differently shaped objects into paint and stamp onto paper. You could use paper cups for circles, heart cookie cutters, blocks, etc.

 

Stained Glass Shapes

Cut any shape out of card stock or thin cardboard. (cereal boxes work well) Cut a second shape inside the first, making a shaped frame. Try to make this frame as thin as possible. Paint frame black. While the paint is still wet, stretch colored plastic wrap over the opening in the frame. Let dry. This should create a stained glass looking shape. 

Paper Ice Cream Cones

Cut a long triange out of brown construction paper to be the cone. Cut a couple of circles of different colors of construction paper to be the ice cream. Cut a small red circle to make a cherry. Glue your ice cream cone together: triangle, circle, circle, cherry.

 

Shape Collage

Cut different shapes out of a variety of colors of construction paper. Glue onto another piece of construction paper to make a shape collage.
