Earth Landscape Challenge!

Updated: Jun 7, 2020



I created this challenge during Earth Day/Week at my school during Ohio's Stay-At-Home orders due to COVID-19. I wanted to come up with a craft that ALL students could participate in without having to leave their homes to purchase materials. I call it a "challenge" because (1) it's challenging! You have to use what you have to make something magnificent! And (2) because who doesn't love a little friendly competition (with no winners or losers of course!).


You will notice here soon that most of my crafts and recipes can be made without purchasing a ton of random supplies or ingredients. My goal is to make these as easily doable and accessible as possible! I hope you enjoy this EARTH LANDSCAPE CHALLENGE!

 

This video is meant for you and your kiddo to watch together. Enjoy!

Materials/Ingredients

You can use whatever craft supplies you have around the house! That's what makes it a challenge! This video was recorded during the Stay-At-Home orders in Ohio due to COVID-19; therefore, I wanted to make a craft that people could make without having to go and purchase materials.


What I used:

  • Ribbon

  • Yarn

  • Blue painter's tape

  • Glittery pipe cleaners

  • Craft Glue

  • Hot Glue


Other material ideas:

  • Paint brushes

    • Sheet of foam

    • Silk flowers

    • Buttons

    • Acrylic paint

    • Popsicle sticks

    • Puffy paint

    • Pom-poms

    • Washi tape

    • Stickers

    • Construction paper

    • Glitter glue

    • Stamps

    • Tissue paper

Instructions/Steps

The world is your oyster! (Haha, get it? Because I did an ocean landscape... Too cheesy?) Use the crafting materials you have gathered to make your own EARTH LANDSCAPE!


Here are some landscape ideas:

  • Mountains

  • Lake

  • Ocean

  • Swamp

  • Desert

  • Grassland

  • Forest

 

Tips, Notes, & Extensions


Here is a forest landscape my 8-year-old sister-in-law made for her landscape challenge! I love her use of alternative ingredients and getting a few from nature to make her forest landscape truly unique!


You can extend this craft by making a different landscape with different crafting materials that you can find around your house!

 

I hope you decide to take part in this EARTH LANDSCAPE CHALLENGE!
