        FOOD- BASED NATURAL MATERIALS We did this activity with the children and enjoyed it very much. I gave each child a plate, watercolors and pasta. The children painted the pasta with watercolors and we waited a short time for them to dry. Then I gave the pasta to the children and explained that we were going to use them as beads. Each child started stringing pasta pieces of the color they wanted on a string. At this stage, we both talked about colors and supported their fine motor skills. While some children sorted colors, others proceeded completely according to their imagination. I guided the children who sometimes had difficulty stringing pasta on the strings. In this process, they actively used their hand-eye coordination and discovered that they could use natural materials in the field of art. At the end of the activity, the children were very happy to show the colorful necklaces and bracelets they made.

  HANDICRAFT PRODUCTS ( NATURAL MATERIALS CHOSEN BY THE SCHOOLS)  1st Kindergarten of Ilioupolis   Our classroom turned into a colorful workshop filled with seeds and pasta! The children created flowers, butterflies, and suns using legumes and pasta pieces. To complete their artwork, they painted the backgrounds with watercolors, adding vibrant life to their designs.

  HANDICRAFT PRODUCTS ( EARTH/STONE-BASED NATURAL MATERIALS)  1st Kindergarten of Ilioupolis   Little Artists Create Ladybugs from Earth & Stone 🐞 Our young artists explored nature by using earth and stone-based materials to create adorable ladybugs! The children carefully selected small stones and transformed them into colorful insects using paint and imagination. This activity helped develop fine motor skills while encouraging creativity and observation of nature. The excitement on their faces as their ladybugs “came to life” was truly wonderful!    

  HANDICRAFT PRODUCTS (FRUIT/VEGETABLE-BASED NATURAL MATERIALS)  1st kindergarten nof Ilioupolis   Using peanut shells and other natural materials, the children designed their own little bugs. They painted, glued, and assembled their creations, turning simple food leftovers into imaginative art. This activity showed how everyday natural items can become something magical through creativity.    

  HANDICRAFT PRODUCTS ( PLANT-BASED NATURAL MATERIALS)  1st Kindergarten of Ilioupolis    Nature became our art studio as we worked with plant-based materials. The children created beautiful trees using real leaves collected from outdoors. Each child decorated their tree in a unique way, exploring colors, textures, and shapes. This hands-on activity helped them connect with nature while expressing their artistic ideas.
