Ocean Craft for Kids
All you need are a few simple materials to make this ocean scene.
Materials:
First, draw ocean life using oil pastels or crayons.
Use your imagination, or get ideas from ocean books.
Its fun to fill the page and make it bright and colorful.
The brighter it is, the better it turns out once the paint is on the page.
It also helps to see to it to completely fill in the shapes with crayon.
Using watery watercolor works best, so you make need to add a bit more water.
Continue painting all around the page until it is covered with blue.
You may want to get creative and add some green or purple watercolor for more interest in the water.
Now its time to let the painting dry.
Just be sure that what you use for a book/weight is something you dont mind getting paint on.
After the painting is dry, your watercolor and crayon ocean scene is complete.
Its such a pretty art activity thats simple to do and goes great with the season!
