Sticky back plastic collages

Quickie for the #savvyhalfterm twitter party!

Sticky back plastic is great for making collages with younger kids who aren’t so dextrous with the glue. Tape the plastic sticky side up to the table (use masking tape so it’s easy to peel off) and supply them with stuff to stick on. Best to use things that are pretty on both sides if your child very young, as they are unlikely to be able to plan for the pic being face down as it were.

Once they are done, cover with a blank piece of paper then wrap the edges round, and hey presto, pretty pic with minimal mess 🙂
