Preschool Picasso: Food

For this month's theme for Preschool Picasso, we read a story and completed two crafts around food. This theme could have been using food as craft tools or based around a book about food. I decided to go with the latter. 

We read Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin and made a dragon and a taco craft. 

The group was so enthralled into the book that I knew this was a good pick! How can you go wrong with this silly book? 

After reading the story, we made our dragon craft and then our taco craft. For our dragon craft, we used bubble wrap and red paint to make scales on each of our dragons and for our taco craft, we had different textures of paper to make our delicious taco, along with some yellow paint using sponges to make our taco shell. 

The group really enjoyed this theme, but I think my next goal will be to try to incorporate the food theme even more by somehow using actual food as crafting tools.
