Chalk on black paper
This post may contain affiliate links. Read my whole disclosure here.
Materials
- black paper
- white chalk
- oil pastels (or chalk pastels)
Instructions
- Set up all the materials on a tray.
- Invite the kids to use the chalk and oil pastels to make a drawing on the black background.
- If you want to offer your kids some ideas to try, you can add a few drawing prompts on the tray. Here are some examples: forest in the dark, fireworks at midnight, a polar bear portrait, a treasure in a cave, big city at night.
Bonus idea: For older kids, you can add a shallow dish of water and invite them to dip the tip of the chalk in the water before drawing to get more vibrant colors.
