Idea from Wendy Graham

summer.jpg (3674 bytes)My daughter has music clases in a building which also has a daycare. The children in the daycare made concrete walkway blocks by forming shapes out of cardboard strips taped into shallow boxes (like the ones canned goods are sometimes displayed on). The cement was mixed according to the package directions and then the children made designs with shells, stones and such as well as drawing in the cement. Hope this helps and you have a great time!
