This texture-based inexpensive craft was done by Nathan when he was around two years old. I drew the bird on the paper and applied glue to each side. Slowly he started sticking grain to the glued parts and a beautiful collage is ready for a toddler.
A very simple activity to do with younger kids and this activity helps to develop their pincer grip and also their concentration. This also yields sensory fun and also a quiet activity. The young kids need supervision and guidance; the older kids can create lots of patterns and collages using different grains.

- A printable or drawing
