How to Use Kindergarten Scribbles

The INSPIRATION
See more on artsonia!
The inspiration for this kindergarten project was pinned three years ago as you can see.  I followed the example for using masking tape....and it took FOREVER!  And it took FOREVER to take all the masking tape off.  After lots of tears almost tears and a massive ball of masking tape, I decided there had to be an easier way and I'm happy to report, there is!  I (or an awesome volunteer!) uses the Ellis machine to punch out all the letters!  I love asking the kids which letter they get.  They proudly announce their first initial!  During the demo we talk about blending and overlapping and trying to use all 24 crayons.   I just love kindergarten brains.  The response to having 24 colors to use was, "Holy Chicken!"  Don't you just love them!
