Ask them to guess how it was made. Sometimes things look very complicated but they really are not!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Method:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let the child take the Styrofoam bowl and with a pencil (which is not too sharp) draw flowers on them. They have to put a little pressure on the bowl so that it leaves an impression. They should fill the entire space with design leaving a few gaps here and there.<\/p>\n<p>With a brush, apply paint on the design and gently place it on the paper. They will need to do this a few times before they get a hang of the process and the prints really start looking clear. Do a step by step demo so that the child understands.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4520\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"styrofoam\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam-888x666.jpg 888w, https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-medium wp-image-4521 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"styrofoam1\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam1-888x666.jpg 888w, https:\/\/devp.artforakanksha.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/styrofoam1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thoughts\u00a0and\u00a0after questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Did you think it would be so easy?
