Shadow Drawing * ages 4+

Shadow Drawing 👤 ages 4+ 👤

Shadow drawing is a perfect outdoor activity and the only things you need is a little sunshine, some sidewalk chalk, and a buddy!

Shadow Drawing

WHAT TO DO:

1. We started by having the boys find the best angle so their shadows were visible and ready to trace.

2. Then I asked them to think about what pose they would like to make and it needed to be one they could hold for a few minutes while the other was tracing them.

3. Once they found their perfect pose, the other traced an outline of their shadow. It was funny to watch their shadow disappear when a cloud blocked the sun but then reappear once the sun came back out.

4. Once the outline was drawn they each colored in their own shadows! So fun and a perfect activity for a sunny day! 👍🏻
