This was such a fun activity, the kids loved creating their own tiny rock village! We collected varying sizes of river rock, washed them and painted them with acrylic paint.
Mimicking those cute miniature Christmas villages, we had our own little Christmas in July. The kids came up with a city hall, barber shop, skyscraper, post office, candy shoppe, cars, school buses, cozy little homes surrounded by trees, a person and even a stoplight.
I helped them draw the “structures” and they painted them (after the paint dried I went over them with a sharpie to define the buildings).
