Getting Ready for the Glitter Art Project for Kids

There are so many glitter craft ideas – but this one’s my favorite. It incorporates
a calming sensory strategy with a muscle building technique!

A great occupational therapy activity that kids love. A little sparkle makes the
project more fun!

When setting up for this glitter art project… you also want to think of the clean
up!

Choose a spot at a table preferably over a smooth, hard floor. (Avoid carpet if
you can.) You can even have kiddos spread out on the floor and use their own
large piece of paper. Floor activities are great for improving core stability.

Use any of the following to place under your project for easy clean up:

Plastic disposable table cover

Smooth paper (as large as possible)
Large tray
Newspaper
Felt (the glitter will stick to it)

For large pieces of paper or plastic table covers, you can collect the variety of
colors of extra glitter and re-use it when possible. If this isn’t possible, you can
use a lint roller or a disposable microfiber cloth.

Follow up with a wet cloth if needed. ​
