Topic: Reflection in Art
Hello, young artists! Today, we're diving into the enchanting world of reflection. To begin our adventure, I want you all to imagine a special mirror. But this isn't just any ordinary mirror—it's a magic mirror that not only shows your reflection but reflects your imagination!
Gather Around the Magic Mirror
Let's form a circle on the floor and pretend there’s a big, shiny mirror in the middle. Everyone, take a moment to look at yourselves and what you see in the ‘mirror’: your eyes, your hair, your clothes. Now, close your eyes and think about a special place where you feel happy, like the beach or a park.
Share Your Reflections
When you open your eyes, I would like you to share what you saw in the magic mirror! What do you think your reflection would look like if it also showed your special place?
This imaginative reflection will inspire us as we create our own artworks today. We will explore how reflections in nature and objects can be seen in real life and how we can express them through our art!
Now, let’s grab our art supplies and let the magic of reflection guide us as we create our own reflections in our drawings!
Note: Ensure to have a variety of art supplies available for the next activities, and encourage children to express their unique perspectives!
