Welcome back ! Please make sure to take a good look around the website each week for new activities.
Turn on calming music. Stretch your body in different ways and hold the stretch. Stretch up to the sky, reach to your toes, make yourself as wide as possible, twist one way and then another. After 10 minutes of stretching, sit in a comfortable position. Take some time to close your eyes and pay attention to each of your senses, one at a time. What can you hear? What can you smell? What can you feel? What can you see? What can you taste?
Still life drawing.
Find an object in your home. Analyze the object. What shapes do you see? What kind of texture does it have? Draw the object paying close attention to exactly what you see. You may like to draw the same object 3 times, each time from a different point of view (e.g. from the front, the back, the side).
Listen to some music on your own or with a family member. How many different instruments you can hear.
Find a piece of cardboard. Draw and cut out the first letter of your name. Find string or yarn or strips of colourful paper to wrap around the letter (so you can’t see any cardboard). You may need some glue. If you have the materials you could try to make the letter 3-D.
