After being painted in bright colours, rolls were split in two. Children chose between bunny and chicken napkin rings, both full of life, colour, cuteness and...feathers!

Napkin rings
This lesson's main objective was to reuse something ordinary and which is usually thrown away, like the toilet paper roll, into something creative and festive, and which can be used for something else.

Colour tones
Today's lesson was based on colour tones: using the same colour but making it lighter by gradually adding white.
We also revised warm (red, yellow, orange, brown, magenta) and cool (blue, purple, green) colours by choosing one warm and one cool colour to alternate in the two paintings. Colours transmit emotion and temperature: warm sun over cool sea or cool moon over warm sand in the desert? We'll leave it up to your own imagination!
