Make it with Diamonds!

Teaching Shapes for Toddlers - With Paper Collage Activity
Part 5 : Diamond

This week we did these two simple collage with diamond shaped pieces, a flower and a turkey.


Flower Collage with Diamond Shape:
What you will need: Construction Paper - Yellow and Green, Glue stick, Scissors, Pencil


1. To cut the diamond pieces, use the symmetry concept! Fold the paper longitudinally and horizontally, just draw a slating line along the creases, (like a right angled triangle) cut it open to get a diamond.


LO enjoyed doing the diamond shape flower collage. Hope you like it and do give a try.

2. Turkey Collage with Diamond Shape

Supplies: Construction Paper - Yellow, Orange or Red, Brown, Glue stick, Scissors, Pencil


1. Cut an oval and circle from the brown paper, to make the body of the turkey.
2. Cut Diamond shapes to make the feathers. You can use colors of your choice. 
3. For both the collages I helped LO in placing the diamond pieces in the right place.
4. You can use googly eyes for more effect.

  2. A diamond painting consists of a canvas with a printed design on it and a set of “diamonds” which come in various colors and sizes to be placed on the canvas according to the pattern. Once all the diamonds are placed, you can admire your masterpiece! The process is surprisingly therapeutic because it requires concentration as well as dexterity - two skills that often go hand in hand
