Did you make the sponge ball craft that was posted on the blog in August? If you did, you can use those sponge balls for this craft. If you didn't already make your own sponge balls, there are directions in this tutorial as well. It's pretty awesome that something you used to help cool you down in the summer can be used in the fall to have some fun making a crazy looking painting! Just follow the link for a full tutorial!

Marble Painting
Have you been looking at a lot of plain or lined white paper for your homework the past few weeks? did you know you can use marbles to create brightly colored designs on a piece of oak tag? Make yourself a few sheets of marble painted paper and use them during your free time to draw on, write a poem on, or whatever you think would look awesome! These paintings look so cool, you could even just hang them in your room without adding to them!

Constellation Flashlight
It's been getting dark out a little earlier each night ever since June 22nd. Sometimes, even though it's dark out, you can't see the stars because it's too cloudy. You can make your own constellations inside with some construction paper and a flash light! Just click the link for a full tutorial on how to make your Constellation Flashlight!: Constellation Flashlight Tutorial
