#Kids Researcher's Log 6/27 (Sun) We held the art workshop
"June Christmas ♪" (Program provided by the Fukasawa Art Institute) 🎄🎁

[Our Secret Hideout] #Online #Workshop https://www.canvas.ws/kenkyujo/report/20210627-online.php

Oh, I hear music playing. It's a Christmas song!
Even though it's June, let's make a Christmas tree!

First, let's make a Christmas tree. It's a white tree made out of construction paper. Secure it
with tape, put it together, and it's done! Once the tree is ready, let's decorate it!

Let's cut out some Christmas patterns to use as decorations. There are so many different patterns… Which one should I choose?? I might accidentally cut through the fine details.
I kept moving the scissors away, lost in my work.

Once I've cut out a bunch, I'll stick them all over the tree. Where should I put them?
I guess the top is the best spot for the star, right??

To finish it off, add some sparkles with ribbons and cotton! There were still a few kids who looked like they hadn’t cut enough yet. You’ve created a beautiful tree—please feel free to put it up and display it!
