Edible art = hyperactive kids

Uploaded some photos from my last session with the kids at Sarah Moore Greene Elementary! I’m going to miss those crazy little kids so much!

For the final project, I really had no idea what to do. I had been very busy with school and getting it all wrapped up, and hadn’t gotten a chance to think about it at all. I went to the Dollar Store, figuring I might get some construction paper and glue, make some collages or something. I walked in though and though ‘hey, I should get them some snacks since it’s the last class’, so I went to the food section and that triggered a memory of the final project I did for my art education class last year – edible art!

PERFECT. Seriously, the perfect last project! I picked up about 20 dollars-worth of candy, chocolate icing (the glue) and, of course, some paper to put it all on. And then I realized I had nothing to get the icing out of the canisters with, so when I stopped to get gas, I went in the gas station and grabbed nine spoons (I wanted to have extra, just in case!) to take with me.

They probably ate as much as they put on the paper, but that’s ok. They really enjoyed it, got in to it and came out of it with some pretty cool looking stuff. Check it out!
