Teach kids to spell their name using art! Ella and Annie show you two ways to turn your child's name into art. This name art craft is perfect for beginners in pre-school and kindergarten. We used the tape resist and collage method to create these two name art projects. Washi tape is perfect for tape resist art, it is repositionable and will not tear the paper. I recommend using glue sticks in place of white glue for the name collage art.
