Create artists with basic shapes in Keynote. This is a fun project that will spark the kids' creativity as they figure out how to "make" things from basic shapes in Keynote. Thanks to Kurt Klynen (Meester Kurt) for this excellent idea!
Follow the How-To Video on the left or Follow these Instructions:
Open a new Keynote presentation.
Choose the "Black" template
Delete all the text boxes
Tap the "+" in the top right corner
Tap the shapes icon (square in front of a circle)
Tap the shape you want to add, resize and move it
Tap the shape to highlight it and change the color with the paintbrush (top right)
Repeat this process to build your Santa bit by bit.
To draw something, such as the beard, hit the "+" and instead of tapping shapes, tap the "photo" icon on the far right (next to shapes). Then, tap "Drawing"
Use the drawing tools at the bottom of the screen to draw your item.
