Easy photography land art project for lock down kids! This is always fun...whether in city streets or natural paths.

Younger kids love a treasure hunt: look for something of every colour wherever you are. Good to get them "exercising" on your daily walk. Fun to try inside or outside and always surprising what's out there when you look!

Older kids can arrange the objects in shapes, patterns, colour wheels or rainbow lines. Enjoy taking the photo in the landscape or back at home.

Take a look at land artists on Pinterest, John Dahlsen, Andy Goldsworthy or Tony cragg.

Have fun! Why not post your results here?

A very quick "how to make an oil pastel monoprint" for those of you stuck at home with kids...

If you have any carbon paper the results are even better. You can use it shiny side down instead of the oil pastel paper. Try drawing free hand, or tracing over printed photos, newspaper or magazine pictures. Try printing over painted paper, collage or different coloured papers too... have fun!

Sadly it was the last art club for a while. We finished our puppets though! Check out these colourful characters made from recycled materials, paper mache and ink painted fabrics. Love them!
