Get Creative: See-Through Windows

Thursday 6th February 2014

Follow these instructions from Christine Allan, 2nd Alton, to make see-through windows based on bible stories.

Equipment

• A4 piece of card (for each child
• Scissors
• Sticky-back plastic
• Various items to put on to the window

Prepare first!

For each child you will need to cut out a “frame” from the card (leave approx. 2cm edge). Prepare 2 x A4 sized pieces of sticky-back plastic. Prepare various items (foam shapes, glitter, tissue paper, etc.) to put on the window, you could link these to a theme e.g. Bible Story.

Instructions

1. Peel off the sticky-back plastic, lay it sticky side up on the table.
2. Place the cut-out frame on the plastic. Then let the children illustrate the story/theme by placing the various items made available on the plastic.
3. Once complete place the second piece of plastic sticky side down on to the frame to seal.
