Mozart's Birthday Creative Art Project

Hi Shelly, this activity idea was submitted by a member and a photo was not supplied unfortunately.

I think you would supply residents with a sheet of paper with a 'blank' musical staff on it as in the first half of this picture.

Residents would then draw some notes onto the staff while listening to Mozart so that it looks like a piece of music (bottom of picture).

Then dab different colored paint onto each note and use water to color wash the page and spread some light color around. Hope that helps!

Tissue Paper Stained Glass Windows

Hi Heather, this activity was posted by Belinda in the UK. It probably has a different name in Canada - perhaps you would know this as:
contact paper,
self-adhesive plastic sheets,
or black sticky vinyl
It is the sort of thing you could cover books with. According to google:

Sticky backed plastic is a self-adhesive plastic sheet, known in the United Kingdom as sticky-backed plastic, is wide plastic sheet or film with an adhesive layer on one side, used as a surface coating for decorative purposes. ... The plastic is often PVC.

Hope this helps!
