Howdy, y’all! A few weeks ago (I know, I’m just catching up), our toddlers enjoyed a 2-week wild west theme. We enjoyed creating several process art projects together, and I wanted to share them here! Sandpaper Cactus Cactuses (cacti?) are rough and prickly, and I wanted our students to be able to feel that sort of texture without actually getting stuck by the prickles. Enter sandpaper! I got a pack of 10 sheets from the Dollar Store and cut them into cactus shapes. After the toddlers rubbed and scratched the sandpaper, I just plopped a spoonful of green fingerpaint on the sandpaper and let the kiddos go to town! To make it even more special, we glued the cactus to a paper and made an entire desert scene – the sun in the upper left corner was a simple yellow handprint, and the ground was made by smearing some brown paint across the bottom of the paper, which they were more than happy to do! (idea from No Time for Flashcards) Wild West Sunset You won’t believe what we made these sunsets out of – it was so simple and fun, and as you can see, it turned out beautifully! I traced each child’s hand to make a cactus, and we tore brown strips of paper for the ground. For more details, see the instructions I wrote back when we actually made it! Cow Sponge Painting All you need for this fun art project is white paper, black paint, a shower loofah (yep, they have them at the Dollar Store), and a willing toddler! They dipped and dabbed and smeared and spread – easy and enjoyable! Lasso Art Now we get into the hard stuff – fine motor skills hard at work here! I recommend a thick woolen yarn for this project. It is hard work grasping a small “lasso” like this and running it through the paint! Nevertheless, our little ones were eager to try (though sometimes we ended up with more handprints than lasso lines…) (idea adapted from Alphabet Academy - wish we had such an awesome outdoor classroom!) Handprint Horse OK, I know this isn’t process art, but the parents raved about this keepsake. And what’s the wild west without some horses? Just paint the hand (upside down) brown, and draw on a mane, tail, and face. Easy peasy! (idea from Glued to my Crafts) Cactus Comb Paintings For some reason in my wild west brainstorm, I kept being inspired by cactuses. I saw crafts for older children involving the gluing of toothpick prickles and tissue paper blossoms onto a cactus shape, but this was more our speed – we painted with a comb! Painting with different objects is always fascinating and exciting, and we got some interesting textures out of the “teeth” of the comb. (idea from TippyToe Crafts) Bonus: “Wanted” Poster Room Decorations After seeing this idea, I worked up my own individualized "wanted" posters (I think I used Google Image search to find an aged template background and then just inserted the children's pictures and typed the text with the font Playbill. The photos worked out really well since it was my first week with these kids, so they weren’t quite used to my excessive photography of them and hadn’t learned to smile for the camera yet. They did get a lot of smiles from the resident adults, however!

I’ve listed 7 critical skills that are happening here! Can you name any more for this sensory activity for kids?

Learning to identify your feelings is one of the first social emotional skills students learn. Naming how you feel can become a natural and simple routine built into the beginning of the school day or a counseling session. BONUS #distancelearning Google Slides (TM) version now included! These Feelings Check-In tools and activities let students practice recognizing their emotions and determining how to manage those feelings in the classroom. The visuals are also great for students who are not as expressive or struggle to identify the exact emotion they are feeling. This resource is packed with materials for identifying feelings and emotions, finding effective coping strategies, and setting goals. What You Get Digital Student Activities: most of the printables have been made into digital activities for students to use on tablets, computers or phones. Feelings Check-In Cards I Can Strategy Cards Feelings Chart My Feelings Photo Worksheet  Small Group Check-In Feelings Spinner Matching Coping Strategies to Feelings Activities Matching Feelings and Strategies Puzzles * If This, Then That Board If You Feel Cards You Can Cards Strategy Desk Plates to Set Goals and Identify Strategies Check, Reflect, & Get Set Activity * Students Mini-Trifolds Goal Cards Strategy Cards Don’t Get Stuck Cards Individual Student Resources Feelings Check-In Boxes Feelings Check-In Logs Feelings Tracker or Mood Tracker * Capture The Feeling - Positive Memory Coping Strategy * * Materials only in BW where noted, otherwise available in BW and color.  Details This resource is perfect for teachers and school counselors incorporating social emotional learning and emotional awareness. Why Bother? The first Social Emotional Learning (SEL) competency is self-awareness and it starts with students being able to identify how they feel. A daily feelings check-in helps students learn to recognize different emotions and also the intensity of emotions. We can't manage a feeling if we can't name it. It normalizes feelings. We aren't always supposed to be happy or calm. Sometimes we are sad or jealous or angry. When we do daily feelings check-ins, we recognize that all feelings are okay. It then opens up the conversation that how we handle those feelings makes all the difference. Feelings check-ins communicate that how everyone feels is important. And that as part of a community, someone is going to care how you feel. It's such a simple daily task to do that shows someone wants to listen and help.
