“Yahweh, how many are your works! In wisdom have you made them all. The earth is full of your creatures.”
— Psalm 104:24 (WEB)Just as God creates with movement and purpose, we can create art through motion and creativity
In today's BibleMouse art lesson, we're going to make art that moves! Remember how we rolled cars and balls through paint yesterday? Today, we'll use marbles to create special spinning artwork!
Let's talk about how things can move and make art. When we roll or spin something, it can leave beautiful marks!
Place paper inside a shallow box, add small drops of different colored paints, then roll marbles around to create a colorful design!
Simpler: Use fewer colors and help child tilt box
Challenge: Try predicting marble path before rolling
Look at our beautiful motion art! God loves when we create and explore!
Coming up: Tomorrow we'll draw circle faces and learn about how God made each person special!
Motion art helps develop fine motor skills and spatial awareness
Young children might get frustrated if marble doesn't move exactly as they want
Child's excitement about creating and willingness to experiment
