Creating Collages

ages 4-6

Supplies

Old magazines or catalogs, child-safe scissors, construction paper, and glue or rubber cement

Activity Detail

Gather a stack of old magazines and catalogs. Choose a theme with your child and go on a hunt for pictures connected to the theme (food, farm, family, animals, ocean, etc...). Cut out any pictures you find related to theme. You can then spend time classifying and sorting the pictures (for example, for food, sort by food groups or by veggies and meats or by meals); counting the pictures; and talking about what pictures you didn't find. Once you've finished sorting, glue all pictures down on a piece of construction paper to create a collage and great poster for your child's room.
