Matryoshka Dolls

Kinders learned about some Russian culture while creating these matryoshkas. We started out looking at examples of matryoshkas and talking about the shapes, lines and designs in them. Students traced the outside shape of the doll and drew in details with sharpies. We then painted a background for the dolls. 

The next week more details were added and the kids worked on coloring them in with crayons. 

Finally, the matryoshkas were cut out and glued onto the blue background. These turned out so darling!
