Emily's Play Dough Mosaic
This month's Open Ended Art theme is Mosaics. This weeks material is play dough. I was really at a loss for something interesting for this one so I decided to just roll out some play dough, have Emily cut it into squares or squarish pieces and place it on some paper. When I gave Emily the black construction paper she asked for glue. At firsy I was like we don't glue play dough, but then I thought about it and decided we would give it a try. After all we glued every other mosaic. Emily was thrilled! We both ended up really enjoying this one :0)

That came out great. GREAT idea to use the pizza cutter. My kids would like to do it that way too.
ReplyDeleteThe pizza cutter is a really good idea! I will have to do that with my son.
ReplyDeleteI think it is great!!! great pizza cutter idea!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! It looks so great! I would've had the same reaction when she wanted to glue it - good for you for letting her do it anyway!
ReplyDeleteIt came out really good!!! How did the glue hold? Your projects are always so creative!
ReplyDeleteThis really turned out wonderfully. What great idea.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea. I wish I was more relaxed about mixing playdoh colors and using playdoh with glue. I am always impressed how Emily manages to stick with such big projects. Usually Anna is done after the first five squares. Do you ever finish her projects?
