Painted Penguins

 

When we learned about penguins in preschool, the children painted their very own penguin.

We had talked about penguin bodies and penguin habitats.  We pointed out how penguins have round heavy bodies and short wings.  As a class we learned how penguins and birds are the same and different.

The children used black, orange and blue paint to create their penguins. Then they used cottonballs for the ice and snow.  You will notice that this boy even painted the baby penguin egg that the daddy penguin holds.

 

When the projects were finished, we had some of the cutest penguins on the planet!
