Land Art for Kids

What is Land Art you ask?  Land Art is creative and fun and can be done by anyone.  It involves making art and sculptures using materials you find in nature, such as leaves, fir cones, twigs, pebbles, rocks, sand and shells.  Some examples:

This afternoon Mrs. Tourin's class joined us.  We looked at some Land Art from  http://landartforkids.com/section345789_116533.html and discussed how we can use things that we find in nature to make art.  I also read  Fall: Animals in Fall Preparing for Winter by Martha E. Rustad in preparation for our time in the woods tomorrow morning. I was excited to see some Kindergarteners already taking on the making of Land Art at our end of the day recess.
