These Memory Jars are such a fun way to capture children’s imaginations and preserve their favorite memories!\u00a0 Literally.<\/h4>\n

\"Memory<\/p>\n

Who hasn’t wanted to save time in a bottle?\u00a0 Well this simple drawing prompt enables you to do just that!\u00a0 The main technique we wanted students to learn was how to draw a cylindrical shape.\u00a0 The prompt itself was so simple, but seemed to open up such a colorful world of limitless imagination!<\/p>\n

After we tee’d up the idea, kids all seemed to have something that immediately came to mind that they wanted to depict in their jar!\u00a0 In fact we worked on these for a full two hour-long class periods!\u00a0 It was fun to watch them draw and talk about their memories as they were working.\u00a0 \u00a0Kids loved these so much we were talking about how fun it would be for them to create a memory jar for friends and loved ones, with special memories that they shared with each person.\u00a0 Hellooooo amazing art gift to Grandma & Grandpa!<\/p>\n

Students applied color with watercolor pencils*<\/a> at the end.\u00a0 We love the illustrative look of the final pieces.<\/p>\n

*…speaking of watercolor pencils – what is your favorite brand??\u00a0 We have literally tried dozens of brands and always go back to our old standby, Crayola!\u00a0 This is not prompted or sponsored.\u00a0 It is just me speaking from experience, telling you that you could spend a LOT of moola on some really expensive watercolor pencils (been there, done that), but we’ve done side-by-side comparisons, and really think that the very reasonably priced Crayola watercolor pencils are the best quality for the money.\u00a0 They have super nice pigment, and, in my opinion almost the most important quality of a good watercolor pencil: they blend very well!\u00a0 The lines almost completely disappear if you use a stiff bristle brush and work in small circular strokes.\u00a0 … Just sayin’ \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
