What You'll Do

Transform a simple blank page into a simply incredible creature. Explore all the ways you can reshape paper—ripping, crumpling, texturing, fringe cutting, triangle cutting, accordion folding—and practice combining those techniques in creative new ways. Use your powers of imagination to BE VISIONARY and invent a one-of-a-kind creature, then bring every papery piece of it to crinkly, colored, folded, fantastical life.

Note: This activity is included in our weeklong Art Explorers: Creator’s Corner curriculum. If your child has taken that class, they’ll already be familiar with this project—and have the chance to put a whole new spin on it.
