For me, there are a few people that I think I want to be just like when I grow up! One of those people is MaryAnn Kohl. I was lucky enough to meet her a few years ago during a conference I was a part of for our local NAEYC affiliate, LordFairfax AEYC. She is such a neat lady and I found such inspiration in her as a teacher and a creative person. If you don't know who she is or know much about process art, I encourage you to take a look at my links to find out more. During this conference, she shared with us an idea of using play dough to "paint'. As with all process art, the concept is EASY. You provide an environment for creativity, to allow the children to develop an idea of their own creation.
Provide the children with a variety of colors.
Use poster board or some other sturdy canvas.
Allow the children to smear the dough.
They can use their fingers or tools.
Children can draw in details.
