Framing your preschool artwork

The children have been creating all summer and the teachers have been saving a selection of each child’s art for an end of the summer Art Gallery. Part of preparing the artwork for the gallery is framing the art. I took a little look around to see how the children are framing their artwork and here are a few samples I came across…

Craft Sticks

Some of the artwork was framed in colorful craft sticks…

And some were framed in unpainted craft sticks…

Tape

Electric tape was added to give a bright, shiny finish to the edge of the paper plate bubble print…

Construction Paper

This piece of sand art was mounted on a sheet of construction paper with a flair…

This ball painting was mounted on construction paper and accented with a few colorful lids…

Construction paper with a little ribbon and beaded trim…

Streamers

Feathers

Everyone really got into the process of preparing their artwork for the gallery…the frames turned into pieces of art too!

If you are considering what to do with a simple bubble print or ball painting, try mounting it on a piece of construction paper or putting it in a picture frame and you will have a wonderful piece of artwork to display on your wall!

Here is an idea of what else you can do with your child’s artwork from 4 Crazy Kings!

Every time I think I know everything I need to know about teaching young children, God says, "Hold on a minute!" and gives me a new challenge.

Let me tell ya...

With each new challenge that you overcome, you will find yourself better equipped and more passionate about teaching young children.

God didn't call wimps to lead, teach, or care for His children. Nope, he has high expectations, so get ready. You will have to give your very best but after teaching for over 30 years, I can tell you that it is a wonderful and rewarding journey.

Whenever your calling feels hard, just remember, 'He who began a good work in you (and in the children you serve) will be faithful to complete it.'
