Craft: Renew old photographs with the help of your children

First of all I just want to warn you that I am not going to give a photographic restoration class, at least, not in the sense that people understand by "restore a photograph"I am referring more to what Luzia and Curdin Virchow have done or rather what they have let their children do that has not been anything other than allowing them to modify old photographs of the family as they see it now and the result It has been a set of images that perfectly reflect the worldview of their children.

That is why I propose a new craft: Renew old photographs with the help of your children. Let's take advantage of those days when we have to stay at home because of bad weather or just don't feel like going out.

Something important to keep in mind before starting and above all, before you think that I have gone crazy proposing this, - I know there are many photographs to which you have a great affection - and it would not be very smart if the same thing happened to them that to Ece homo.

The trick

Scan or photocopy the photographs beforehand, so we will save disgust and in the process we can enlarge the photographs to a size that allows your children to draw and play with the images, we already know that making small drawings is not the strength of our children.

The materials are simple:

  • Colored pencils and punctures.
  • Paper.
  • Scissors.
  • Glue stick.
  • A lot of imagination.

Enjoy a wonderful afternoon with the children.
