Camouflage Crafts Puppet
Theatres
Give the Rainbows a piece of paper to draw
and colour their backdrop. The Rainbows should then stick this to
pre-prepared cereal boxes (Open the box out and cut holes in the front
and top or bottom as shown above). Staple the box together for the
Rainbows whilst they draw an alien onto card and colour him in the same
colours as the backdrop. If you're really clever you can add card board
plants to the front of the box to make the scene 3D and decorate the
outside of the box. We made an alien scene, but you could make them for
real animals too! NB: This craft takes most Rainbows a long time.
Games Hunt the Wool:
Hide equal numbers of bright coloured wool and wool that will blend
into the surroundings (e.g. green if amongst plants). Split the
Rainbows into small teams and send them outside to find as much wool as
possible. Count up how much wool each team has and see whether they
found more bright colours or camouflaged colours.
Camouflage pairs: Use pictures of camouflaged animals to make a pairs game. Other Activities
Print out (or find in books) pictures of
animals that are camouflaged to show to the Rainbows.
We read the story called "Chameleon's Crazy Colours" by N. Grant and M. Terry. |
