we used random wood pieces collected over the years for a little wood + glue free for all.
and if there was any doubt that using a glue bottle is good for those hand muscles, take a look at this photo:
i love it!

Love the sculptures! This is on my list to do soon – except we’re breaking out the glue guns again. Teacher Tom has converted me to glue gun for this type of activity! :)

Wow! You do the most amazing stuff! Was it expensive to do this? I love the kinesthetic learning!

thank you. other than the paper plates i brought from home, this didn’t cost us a dime. we’ve had wooden pieces donated over the years, glue donated at the beginning of the school year.
but if i was to go purchase all those wooden odds and ends, it would have been! so, that means i wouldn’t have done this project. : )
so often i look at what we have and make a project out of it….like so many others do too!

this is my kind of art project! child-directed and open-ended fun! and your photos are gorgeous. you’ve reminded me that i’ve been planning to collect little wood bits for just this sort of thing — thank you!
