You can't go wrong with print-making, and this is proof. This week, the Creative Arts Playgroup read the Sendak classic Where the Wild Things Are.

I had already cut out some additional accents such as the forest motif in the book, grass, ocean waves, scales and the words "Wild Things". After they printed their own monsters, they played around with the other stamps. I then cut out their prints while they played, and then they arranged them how they wanted them on cardstock.
