Mr. Seahorse art project for kindergarten

Mr. Seahorse art lesson for kindergarten 

                                                              Here is my demonstration video.

I  played a YouTube video of Paul Ryker  reading the book "Mr. Seahorse" by Eric Carle. I  stopped the video periodically to discuss the illustrations and talk about the story. 

I found a great tutorial on how to teach the little ones how to draw the seahorse. 

You can find it here https://artprojectsforkids.org/portfolio/mixed-media-seahorse/

This was taught at the end of the  year so they caught on pretty quickly. 

The next step was to trace the seahorse with a black crayon. 

Students then colored the sea horse with crayons and drew wavy  lines with a white crayon for the water. 

The last step was to paint the whole thing with blue watercolors. I used diluted liquid watercolors.
