This bulletin board from All About Children childcare center incorporates two of the best things about summer - ice cream and sunglasses! It's a sweet design, created using student crafts, that's sure to be a hit. Don't forget to grab the FREE template at the bottom of this post! Ice Cream Cone Craft To duplicate the original craft, simply cut ice cream scoop shapes from white art paper, invite students to use paint daubers to color the scoop, then attach the cutout to a triangle shape cut from light brown/tan construction paper. Easy peasy! Of course, there are other ways to go about the project; Create the scoop and cone shapes using an ice cream template or coloring page. The more detailed shapes will make the cones stand out more when arranged on the bulletin board. Instead of paint daubers, have students make puffy ice cream cones. All you need is shaving cream, glue, food coloring, and sprinkles! This, of course, would lend a more authentic ice cream look! Sunglasses Craft Download the sunglasses template below and have your students use them to create their own pair of sunglasses. There are four different shapes to add a bit of variation! Also, while you can simply have your students cut sunglasses from brightly colored card stock, we think it might be fun to try to provide a unique art experience. For example; Use Crayon transfer art to create a design on the glasses, then cover with muted watercolors for a wax resist effect. Complete the project in small groups and {safely!} paint with melted crayons! The results are sure to be stunning! Summer Is Sweet In Preschool! Background: White bulletin board paper. Title: "Summer Is Sweet In Preschool!" Border: Summer themed trimmer or complimentary color/patterned border. Decoration: Fill the board with your students' crafts!

Photo Source: kidsartists.blogspot.com Jacquelien over at Kids Artists did this project with her elementary art students and we think, on a slightly larger scale, it would make a super cute end-of-the-year bulletin board! Simply invite your kiddos to draw a picture of what they're looking forward to most - an activity, a vacation, a family tradition, etc. - during summer vacation and add a pair of sunglasses! Our Summer's Looking Bright! Background: Yellow bulletin board paper. Title: "Our Summer's Looking Bright!" Border: Colorful trimmer or black and white patterned bulletin board border. Decoration: While we love the black and silver frames Jacquelien had her kiddos, consider having your students create the frames from neon/bright colored card stock to give it a more summery look! Arrange the frames around the board, being sure to label who the sunglasses belong to.
