Christmas ornaments - balls.

Today we decided to create little presents for our Mommies and Daddies. I think those ornaments will last forever on family Christmas trees.
The idea of this ornament came from here
We used painted styrol foam balls and our little hands. Look how pretty our decorations!

Christmas ornaments ready! Our final class.

Happy Holidays for everyone!
Yesterday we finished first semester of our art studio.
We were in rush to finish our winter wreaths. That was amazing team work, which combined different techniques such as sculpturing with play dough, modelling base for wreath and whole design of it.

Happy Holidays!

Something little for tiny gift.

Wow... A few day for Christmas! Children's parties started and we create new and new adventure for our little ones. Today I met Grandpa Fros and his Granddaughter. So much fun and presents!

It is a wonderful team of teachers and their families!

But behind the parties we are working on our presents.

Our class was about little pine tree, growing in the forest and has a lot of friends. And how it happens in stories - we had a happy end! Little boy decorated tree in a forest and tree  brought a lot of joy and fun for many-many years. 

Little children created pine tree. they looked gorgeous!

 Next class we will decorate them with sparkles.

Come and see how it will look like!

Older children created new play dough ornaments and paint them!

They put a lot of effort on those works!
