Summer Solstice Painted Sun Collage Craft for Kids

summer-solstice

Celebrate the summer solstice with sun-sational kids’ craft! Your little artist can create their own sun artwork to mark the change of the seasons. Not only is this a fun-filled way to mark the holiday, your child can also build fine motor skills, explore art materials and get creative. Read on for more information on how to create a summer solstice sun painted collage.

Arts and Crafts Materials You’ll Need

  • Yellow and orange tissue paper
  • Markers
  • Poster board paper
  • Yellow tempera paint
  • A paintbrush
  • Scissors
  • Clear-drying school glue

How-To Art-Making Steps

  1. Draw a circle at the center of the poster board paper.
  2. Cut or tear the tissue paper into smaller pieces. Your child can cut shapes (such as triangles, squares, and circles) or tear the paper into free-form parts.
  3. Glue the paper onto the circle. Overlap the edges and create layers for added textures.
  4. Paint rays onto the sun circle with the tempera. Your child can either use a brush for this step or finger paint print lines as rays.
  5. After the tissue paper and glue dries, your child can also choose to add paint onto the collage. Again, they can use the brush or finger paint print the tempera.
