Preschool Art & Storytime: Things That Go

There were two big “hits” this week with using wheels to make art!  I set up a ramp made of cardboard, along with some Duplo car wheels and tempra paint.  The kids ran the cars through the paint and down the ramp, making a collaborative work of art.  They loved doing this!  I also had paper available for them to make their own art to take home.

I then taped a large piece of paper on the floor and attached markers to the back of matchbox cars, this way they drew when you pushed them around.

                                            

I also cut out some trains with my Cricut and the kids used post-it notes to create train cars:
