Fun in the Sun and Sand with BLICK Art Materials

Fun in the Sun and Sand with BLICK Art Materials
with this Free Lesson Plan from our vendor partner Blick Art Materials!

Sand Sketching
As we enter the “dog days” of summer, there’s no better time to consider how we can create a work of art using the most basic of outdoor play materials – sand.  A mess-free sand art creation doesn’t have to
be a mirage – and in this project, we’ll show you how!  Mix colored sand with Elmer’s School Glue, to
make a sand “paint”. Participants develop their masterpieces with little mess but plenty of inspiration. 
BLICK Canvas Panels serve as the foundation while different tools, such as squeeze bottles and wooden craft sticks, make it easy to manipulate the material and free the artist to play in their own creative sandbox.  

Full project details and materials list are available at https://www.dickblick.com/lesson-plans/sand-sketching/.
