Goldilocks and the Three Bears is a classic tale that almost every child knows.
It's also a great tale for doing a little graphic design with the kids. Reproduce the little girl's blond hair, for example.
Here, I propose a fun activity to represent beautiful blond locks in three different ways: paint via stamping, marker via drawing and paper via folding and gluing.
Materials:
- white A4 paper
or download and print the model with the 3 little girls I made here:
- yellow marker
- yellow paper
- toilet paper roll
- scissors
- yellow paint
- glue
Step-by-step tutorial:
1. Draw the same child's face three times on A4 paper, or use the model above.
2. Cut 5mm-wide strips of yellow paper (at least 10 strips).
3. Prepare a small round stamp by cutting a roll of toilet paper on the length. Then, folding and taping it to obtain a smaller circle diameter.
Now it's time for the little hands to play...
The first Goldilocks:
1. Dip the round stamp in the yellow paint .
2. Paint circles around the face
The second Goldilocks:
Draw beautiful curls with a yellow marker around the face.
The third Goldilocks:
1. Wrap each strip of paper around a marker or pencil.
2. Glue the strips around face
3. Optional: for a better finish, cut an half-circle in yellow paper and glue it to the top of the head to mask the gluing of the paper strips.
