2011 Sprague Halloween Challenge


Halloween is probably one of the most creative holidays of the year, so it should come as no surprise that it is one of Ms. Stabnick's favorite days.   The Sprague Halloween Challenge is to make your own costume this year for our school parade on Monday October 31st.  Halloween is not about buying a costume, it is about getting a little creative and a little silly to invent a character for one super celebration.  Please look through your art supplies, closets, recycling or even go down to the Wellesley Swap.   Over the years, parade spectators have enjoyed seeing robots made from boxes and even a plate of spaghetti and meatballs fashioned with yarn and nerf balls. If you already have a store bought costume - make a prop!  If you have a pirate costume, build a parrot.  If you are looking for ideas..... see Ms. Stabnick!

 

All children who capture the creative spirit of Halloween will receive a prize at the parade.

 

Happy, Happy Halloween -  Go get clever, creepy and creative!

Take a photo of your child in front of a museum you visit and bring it to the art room.  If you have an opportunity to purchase a postcard of a favorite work or the museum itself, even better.  Participate in our ongoing version of show and tell!
