Use two separate sheets of craft paper and draw a large station wagon and a large bed. Divide the children into two groups. Tell each group that they will design a mural. One group will paint the rainbow station wagon and the other group will paint the bed. Give each group of children drawing paper, pencils, markers, and safety scissors and ask each group to create a drawing of the relatives for each collage.
Children can create imaginary relatives or draw their own relatives.
Children can also use the book for reference. Encourage the children to include writing or dictation to accompany their murals. Display the children's work when completed. Engage the children in a discussion about the special things that they like to do with their family. Ask the children if they ever found something special with a family member.
