I love that this is a winter activity that is not necessarily a holiday activity. It can be hard trying to find winter activities like this and this one was fun for EVERYONE. Thank you for making this resource.

This was an enjoyable independent and creative winter art activity that was very useful to use during the flu season when so many students had been absent and I had to help many of my artists catch up on previous art projects! My third and fourth graders created some fun designs on their mugs! Thank you so much for these useful and creative activities!

Excellent resource for my art classroom! Thank you!
This was a fun art activity for my students. We were inspired to do a similar technique with other colouring pages.
I really enjoyed using this resource in my classroom. The directions were clear and easy to follow, which made implementation smooth. My students were engaged while completing the activity, and it provided meaningful learning opportunities that supported our objectives. I appreciated how the resource reinforced key skills and encouraged student thinking. Overall, this was a great addition to my lessons, and I would definitely use it again.
This art project was perfect for the week before break. The writing prompts are so useful.
This project was quick and easy. The video included had great tips for students. Loved this!
