Storytime & Art with GreenHill and Elmer The Elephant

Calling all preschoolers! Join our partner, GreenHill Center for NC Art for some storytime and art making fun every Masterpiece Friday. Check out a project below inspired by the David McKee story, Elmer. And for more ARTastic fun with GreenHill, check out their YouTube channel here!

Supplies:

• Colored paper - don't have ready-made paper? Make your own! You can paint paper pieces, color them with crayons or colored pencils - anything will work

• Old magazines, newspapers, or advertisements

• Scissors

• A ruler or straight edge (this could even be the side of a cardboard box), or just try cutting strips on your own! Art never has to be perfect.
