Pegasi fly away

We started so nicely with colorful arts & crafts. First we were making the project PEGASUS. Each pegasus was made of wood, and kids have got it in pieces to connect them with glue. They all made it by themselves, I was proud. Did they practice during the summer? I don’t know… Then it was painting. I bought lately fluorescent paint and it made a new effect to wooden pegasi. When it dried Eco Kids put the feathers on. So it took a lot of time, but it was worth and each kid liked it a lot! It is for sure that pegasi fly away! It can be a decoration, but also a toy you can play with.

The next project was WOODEN MUSIC EARNINGS – easier and with quick nice result. Everybody decided to give it as a present.

The second group made pegasi and CORK ARMY. Oh, the ideas of the kids were just amazing! In the end army was ready to the battle.

We had time for ice cream in the nice bakery in my neighborhood. Walk together is great for us as a team.

I tell you, it was just a great beginning!

Looking forward to this Saturday!

Regular Saturday sessions starts... now!

1st Eco Kids session of the school year 2012/2013

starts on

Saturday 14th of August!

It’s just the beggining.

As you know me I am full of energy, have many plans and new ideas.

We will be eco the whole school year.

With Eco Kids you will never have a bored child! Your child will be inspired!

We will enjoy fall with pine coins and tree projects, still painting in the garden, then have fun with winter with new snowmen projects, Christmas trees, but also learning about animals and many outdoor games in the snow, then enjoy spring with planting new seeds and flowers, organizing concerts.

We will have ice cream beginning!

We will have new games!

We will have trips!

Kids love it, so do I!

Here are the examples of what we are going to develop thru’  out eco arts & crafts production in this session:

* My name is... – we get to know new Eco Kids members and make our names out of the sponge. Kids can put them later on the door or in the room.

* CD candle – candles on CD with natural elements decoration.

* Fly, fly Pegasus – wooden horse (unicorn) with the wings.

* Eco ceramique small plate with eco motive – we decorate plates with eco signs

* Music earrings – wooden earrings with music motives

* Battery eater – made out of bottle

* Hungry hippo - from eggs container

* Bird tree – tree made out of wood, color paper, plastic bag with small wooden bird feeder

* Flowers with butterflies – made out of kitchen towel and color paper, butterfly from material

* Small trees in the pots – painting and planting project

See you on Saturdays again!!!

Summer session photos

3 days of summer session was great!!! Kids were so happy to spend some time together when there was no school. They were working with many different materials: wood, paper, sponge, nuts and some others. I was preparing the projects for them thinking about sunny summer days. During the session Eco Kids were painting, drawing, cutting, sticking, etc. I always try to find the ways to get them involved in the projects asking some questions about the things we do, telling the stories, challenging them. It all worked and the effects you can see at the photos. Kids were happy to do almost all the works outside and have a snack on the grass. Yes, we all like picnics...

Now I am looking forward to the next session and I am thinking about special projects for my Eco Kids artists!

See you soon!
