From best-selling author Yuval Zommer, The Big Book of Nature Art is
packed with easy art activities inspired by nature. Drawing on Zommer's
years of experience running art workshops for children, The Big Book of
Nature Art includes his tips for stress-free ways to get creative with
kids and fun facts about the natural world.
Each of the activities can be achieved in four simple steps using
natural materials combined with recycled or found materials from around
the home. With a total of twenty-two art activities, each requiring no
more than a five-minute setup and cleanup, the crafts are easy to
completeand fun for everyone involved. The book also encourages children
to see the creative potential in the natural and everyday treasures all
around us--from twigs, seed pods, petals, and leaves to pencil shavings,
take-out cups, toilet-paper rolls, and more.
Little nature artists will enjoy making paper-plate birds, leaf bugs,
coffee-cup owls, tree-bark bats, and schools of seashell fish, as well
as scenes for their creatures to dwell in, from watery worlds to
underground tunnels.
