Eco art fulfills all 3 commitments |
The three commitments to Kindness are accomplished when creating eco art. #1 Be Kind to yourself- collecting trash is great exercise and painting it is great for the mind. Instructions: Step 1. Organize a field trip with your class or group (if alone go alone). Before leaving on trip have the group repeat after you in unison: We are Fantastic, You are Fantastic and finally, I am Fantastic. This creates energy and builds self comfidence. Talk about the environment while collecting wood or other objects suitable to paint BE KIND on them. Explain to the group how collecting and painting the signs benefits you, its great exercise, wonderful to be outdoors and painting releases stress. Step 2. Put base coat, then paint yellow for background. After drying paint BE KIND on them and other sayings with Kindness on the sign. Explain to the group how others will benefit by reading the signs. It makes people smile and feel Fantastic. Step 3. Organize another field trip to post signs. You will need a hammer and nails. Explain to the group how turning trash into art helps the environment. Instead of ending up in a landfill they help beautigy your neighborhood. It’s called Eco Art. Step 4. Sell signs to support yourself or family , your school, church, local charity or club. Make sure to put enough money aside to purchase more paint to keep earning money. Step 5 Please take pictures of the posted signs, send to us and let us know what city they are in.
