Frida and Diego are both from Mexico! So of course my campers all learned to find Mexico on the world map and we got a little insight into the native country of our feature artists! In Mexico, the language spoken is Spanish and other age appropriate tidbits that you can ask your kiddos about! But we focused on the importance of the sun in Mexican culture. The sun is a symbol of life and energy! Watch as your kids create their very own Mexican Clay Sun! They really had to work hard to flatten that clay and cut around the template, but as you’ll see they poured their little personalities into each piece! So some suns are perfectly proportioned and symmetrical, while others have bulging eyes and spider lashes! Each one unique, each one beautiful! These will have to spend the week with me while they dry and they will be painted and decorated so you can have a gorgeous keepsake from your little one's time with us!
