Week 19- Zentangle Valentines
Our last zentangle project involved making a massive 3D snowflake. To view it click here.
This project was purely for fun. It's simple enough, however the kids needed a lot of encouragement to keep going since they would lose energy and want to quit. It helped that this wasn't the kids first time doing a zentangle project.
What you will need:
-colored paper
-black marker
Time: 45 minutes (approx)
Prep: I printed an empty heart on white paper; filled in the lines with a ruler; then printed the filled in heart on red paper.
I suggest having several patterns prepared to show the kids that they can look at. Then if they don't know what to fill in, you can give them suggestions. Look up zentangle patterns and different zentangle projects for fun. There's a lot you can do!
For the younger ones I suggested: Circles, zig zags, hearts, swirlies, etc.
For the older ones I suggested: "Fish" scales, checkered patterns, etc.
Overall: A simple and attractive project. Might require a lot of guidance.
