Last week, we were doing some artworks outdoor! In groups, we took some materials from the playground and we used our imagination to create something new. We hope you enjoy it!

On May 5th, Japanesse society celebrate’s children day hanging carp kites from windows and balconies. The carp is a character that fights a powerful dragon in a story. Like the carp, children have to be strong to be succesful in life.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of salt

1/2 cup of water

1 cup of flour

Procedure:

How to make the salt dough

Add the 1/2 cup of salt and 1 cup of flour to a bowl, and stir in the water adding it slowly.  You may not need all of the water. You want the dough to be dry. If it gets sticky add more flour. Knead the dough and then roll out and use as you want.

Once you have made the shapes you want then you need to dry them so you can paint them.. Traditionally salt dough is dried in the oven which takes about 3 hours at a low heat so they don’t burn. But instead,  you can swap your oven for a microwave and zap them for 3 mins.

Here is our Totem! Hope you like it!

A mandala  is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Indian religions, representing the universe. Look at the Mandala tree that the children in Escola El Vilot have created. So beautiful and relaxing!
