Using These Sheets for End of Year Celebrations
Teachers and parents often need simple activities as the school year wraps up. Our lettering and signs are an easy way to decorate a classroom bulletin board before the break. Children can color the bubble lettering and take their artwork home to celebrate the start of vacation.
For younger students, the cute summer pages offer thick lines and large spaces that are easy to fill with crayons. You can also staple a few pages together to make a simple activity book for long car rides.
Bringing Warm Weather Scenes to Life
When working on our beach and pool scenes, try mixing different shades of blue and green for the water. You can use colored pencils to add texture to the sandcastles or blend yellow and orange markers for a glowing sunset.
If you are printing these for older kids or adults, the detailed flower designs and intricate beach umbrellas provide a nice challenge for fine-tip markers. Adding small details like shadows under the beach chairs gives the pictures more depth.
Choosing the Right Paper for Summer Art
Standard printer paper works fine for crayons and colored pencils. If your kids prefer to use watercolors to paint the ocean waves or heavy markers for the popsicles, print the PDF files on cardstock so the colors do not bleed through. Keeping a folder of these printed sheets near the kitchen table is a helpful way to manage quiet time during hot afternoons.
- Use standard 20 lb paper for everyday crayon coloring.
- Choose 65 lb cardstock if you plan to use wet media like watercolors.
- Keep a clipboard handy for coloring outside on the grass.
