If you are looking for a super-successful step-by-step Mayflower drawing, head right over to Art Projects for Kids. I downloaded Kathy Barbro’s excellent instructions and taught the lesson to our third graders. Result: 100% success!!!! CLICK HERE for the instructions.

Materials:

• Light brown construction paper
• Crayola Color Sticks (Note: compensated affiliate link)

I absolutely love Crayola Color Sticks for this project. The white sails really stands out on the light brown paper. Kids can layer colors, or create bright solid color areas using heavy hand pressure.

Have a happy holiday!

Enjoy!

If you are looking for a whole-class art project, artprojectsforkids.org also has nice downloadable murals for all the holidays.
