Popsicle Stick Menorahs

Image
I made a simple out line of a menorah. The kids colored popsicle sticks and glued them on the lines. They scrunched up tissue paper to create flames.

Ice Cube Painting

Image
We painted with ice cubes for letter 'I'. Ice cube paint recipe: Put 1 teaspoon of tempera paint in each section of an ice cube tray. Then fill the rest of the section with water and stir. After they sit 10 minutes,  stir the paint in again. Put them in the freezer. Insert popsicle sticks once they are slightly frozen. 

Forming Shapes

We formed triangles with popsicle sticks. You can also print out a simple outline of different shapes that they can match up.
