Sculptural Art Ideas for Kids [from It’s Playtime]

August 29, 2012 by Anna Ranson

There were some wonderful ideas linked up to It’s Playtime last week, and in particular I loved these activity ideas for creating sculptural art work with kids! Exploring art in three dimensions creates new opportunities to plan, problem solve, create and imagine for young children. Enjoy these wonderful ideas!

[Ever tried giving your child a roll of tape and seeing what they create with it? Instant sculptural art!]

These sewing grid material and pipe cleaner models are so original and simple for little ones to achieve, from Fit Club House!

I adore these cut straw and play dough sculptures from Life with Moore Babies!

Here’s a wonderful way to make 3-D mathematical models using straws from Crafty Mom Share!
