WHAT IS INSIDE THIS KIT? 5 Madhubani art picture templates, an assortment of coloured sand, black felt pen, craft glue, spatula and a book on Indian traditional art which includes Madhubani are provided in this Art and Craft kit.
HOW DO YOU MAKE THE MADHUBANI PICTURES? The picture templates in this Toykraft Madhubani kit carry the art form specially created considering a younger target audience. You have a choice, either of line-work or filling sand in the empty spaces. Coloured sand is stuck using the adhesive in these areas. Just like in painting, shading effects are also possible by control of the amount of sand used. The sand density plays an important role in the final work.
WHAT DO YOU LEARN FROM THIS KIT? Children in India need to be encouraged to understand and delve with traditional art. Most of the traditional art forms are simple and reveal innocence uncomplicated by modernism. This is why they can appeal to children who are not often exposed to a rich and old culture. A little exposure and brief explanation from the book in this Toykraft kit will get them thinking and seeing differently. Importance of Traditional art forms like Madhubani

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The picture templates which carry the Madhubani art form are specially created considering a younger target audience. The idea behind this craft is to stimulate the interests of the children in the rich art culture of India. This kit serves the purpose of an introductory exercise in that direction. Once the child has completed these sand art pictures it would be a great idea to picture-frame some of them. The framed art will constant remind the child of its creative ability. The picture templates use Madhubani motifs which a child can identify with – the blazing Sun God – Surya as an example of tattooed art, a pair of fish (very popular motif), a richly adorned elephant and the very famous peacock with its royal plumage. Coloured sand is offered in 8 bright eye-catching colours. The sand has been sieved to a uniform mesh size and is provided in separate sachets. One needs to first identify the parts of the picture for each of the colours. This is a very important part of the art as the right colour combinations can really make the picture come alive. Having decided the target areas for a particular colour, one needs to apply the adhesive on these areas with the help of a brush – both of which are provided in the pack
Product Includes – 4 Printed templates, 8 colours of Sand, 1 Adhesive, 1 Spatula, 1 marker pen, instruction manual
