With a focus on art, drawing and creative thinking, this book will tick all those artistic boxes whilst also providing a rich variety of learning experiences that take a decent amount of time to finish - when completed slowly and carefully, of course!
CROSS-CURRICULA: Some worksheets contain elements of writing, literacy, internet research and geography and activities include: create a wordsearch, make a Father Christmas mask, researching the North Pole plus plenty of engaging art based activities that allow children to tap into their creative abilities as they imagine and draw to complete the tasks.
VERSATILE: All pages have been designed to print and teach - they can just be handed to children as they are self-explanatory however, we recommend enlarging some to A3 or bigger for large scale art using any material or medium you want - this can also extend the amount of time they take to complete.
