Stool Makeover!

Y’all! I am BEYOND stoked over my stool makeover! So my cousin-in-law was sweet enough to give me an old stool she wanted out of her way. I saw a pin on Pinterest….of course, I did….where someone took an old stool and updated it to look like pencils, crayons, and paper. I immediately thought to myself, I AM TOTALLY DOING THIS FOR MY CLASSROOM!!!! I am so pleased with how it turned out!

If you would like to create your own all you’ll need is……

An old stool

Lots of paint varieties

Painters tape

Sharpies

Ruler

A variety of paintbrushes

LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF TIME!!!!!

The most time-consuming part of this craft is waiting for each color to dry, before beginning another color. I also recommend using Mod Podge on your stool. I feel it will seal it off better.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?!?!?!?! Leave me a comment below!

FREE Santa Claus Cutting Practice Activity

 

We all love our tiny people! And helping them with gross motor skills is a must, even when we cringe at the thought of handing our 3 or 4 year old with a pair of scissors.

So, to create this adorable activity, all you need is:

• Santa Claus Template (bottom of page)
• Scissors
• Glue Sticks
• Cotton Balls

First start by cutting out all of your pieces. Each template will create TWO complete Santas.

Next, have your child/student cut along the dotted line on the beard portion of the Santa.

TIP: To incorporate shapes into the craft, ask your child/student to hold up the square. The square will be the beard portion of the Santa.

Next, glue all the Santa pieces together to form your Santa Claus.

Next, decorate your Santa’s face! Maybe draw eyes or glue googly eyes down. Draw a nose or some rosy cheeks. BE CREATIVE!!!

Finally, hang and give lots and lots of praise for how amazing your child/student did on their Santa!

This craft was created FREE for you by Another Rawrsome Blog. You may NOT alter this template for any reason. You may NOT sell this template for your own personal gain.
