Club de Arte 8: Semana Santa Huevos Rodantes!


SPECIAL ONE-OFF THEME FOR WEEK 8: Easter-egg rolling!

IDEA AND AIMS:  To celebrate Easter with the children and give them an opportunity to create something which is for themselves - two hard-boiled eggs, one to compete in the Art Club egg-rolling competition and both to eat or take home afterwards, as they like. 

Egg-rollling instructions and examples

PROCESS:
1. Facilitators pre-prepare 2 x hard-boiled eggs per child and cut up an egg box so that the kids have somewhere to balance their eggs while painting.
2.  Kids decorate the eggs with any patterns and designs that they like, using paint and glitter.
3. Everybody: set up a ramp in an outside space and one-by-one roll one egg down the ramp.  The egg that goes the furthest wins a prize of extra refrigerio biscuits ('refrigerio' = break snack).
4. Everyone can eat their eggs, or take them home as they like.


MATERIALS: 2 x hard boiled eggs per child, sections of egg boxes, paint, paintbrushes, palettes, bowls, glitter, ramp.
