Have you ever sent a postcard by mail? How much does a stamp cost? How long does it take for your postcard to arrive at its destination?
In this workshop, we will be making a short visit to the Singapore Post at Revenue House. Children will enjoy a hands-on experience there, learning about the different services available such as weighing a postcard to send to a friend, buying stamps and dropping their postcard into the mailbox. They will also learn how much it costs to send the same postcards to different parts of the world.
In this Lion King themed postcard workshop, older kids will dabble in a variety of pen & ink drawing techniques. They will create contrast value from different types of line weight, dot stippling and cross-hatching. Students will also learn to use a masking fluid for watercoloring to preserve areas of their postcard.
Younger kids will learn to draw complex figures from basic shapes and paint with watercolor. They will be also be introduced to basic pen and ink drawing techniques, creating a set of Lion King themed postcards.
Get one to three addresses of your closest good friends and send a word of encouragement to them using one of your postcards!
Support your child's creativity and they will approach problems with far greater imagination.
