Tots on Tour: Sept. 2012

The weather this past weekend was incredible. I had a great turnout for Tots on Tour, a preschool art program that I have been teaching one Saturday per month for the past 7 years at Grounds for Sculpture.

We had a nice tour of Ming Fay's 'Canutopia' exhibit, walked a portion of the grounds and found the secret path to the lookout tower that gives a nice view of the grounds.

After reading a story, the children did a simple, classic color collage using tissue paper and water. It's an easy project for preschoolers to see the magic of color and to enjoy the process of overlapping shapes and/or arranging the pieces of tissue paper.

Here is one of my regular "Tots" named Lucas working on his collage and Lorenzo's final collage
