Bringing Kids Drawings To Life

Bringing Kids Drawings To Life

Today we decided to head out to blow the cobwebs away after being mostly in over the Christmas period. The children wanted to go to the beach so with rain clouds looming we pulled on our waterproofs and headed for the coast. The children had spent the morning drawing pictures so we thought it would be a lovely idea to take those drawings with us and try and bring them to life in the sand.

We simply took a rake along with us to make marks… and here are our results.

We used a drone to take photos of our work but this could also be achieved by standing on a pier or somewhere higher than the sand.

Take a peek at some of our other beach art fun posts.
