I was so super excited to post this activity! We are doing Nursery Rhymes this week. Today we were going to make a large moon for the classroom. I decided on a small balloon for each kiddo to make their own paper mache moon.
We first had a shredding party tearing the tissue paper apart. Once the glue is out this is impossible!
Next we dumped elmers glue on a plate added water and mixed it so it was a little thinner. Each kid grabbed their own large sponge and began applying the glue to their balloon. We did a few layers of tissue paper then glue and ended with glue.
Finally we hung them in the sun to dry.
This was a long activity that held everyones interest.
WARNING: very messy activity use a surface covering in work space.
They turned out great!
