Here’s an easy craft project that can be adapted to any age and can be done together… make a mosaic. Mosaics are usually created using small square tiles, but you can use different shapes, too. To create your project use small, brightly colored squares of paper. Squares cut from magazines can also be used to make mosaics. To make it easier on younger kids pre-cut the squares. Younger kids can work on a simple design where older students may want to make a picture with their tiles. Here are a few web pages that explain the project more….
