Tinfoil Restaurant

When presenting our tinfoil sculpture activity, I mentioned how I saw some earlier in the week make a juice box as their sculpture. The kids for this group decided they would make juice boxes, lunch boxes, plates and other food related items. They asked for help and troubleshooted any shapes they didn’t know how to make. Some of them combined their sculptures together or started playing restaurant after they finished creating.

The children heard one idea and turned it into a group project and make-believe world for them to explore. And when they faced challenges making their plans a reality they worked together and asked for help. 

This activity allowed the children to explore their building and storytelling skills together. They got a chance to build their food-filled world with each other.

Arts For All acknowledges the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas. This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which was an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. The City of Hamilton has developed an Urban Indigenous Strategy that will strengthen the City’s relationship with the Indigenous community and help promote a better understanding among all residents about Indigenous histories, cultures, experiences and contributions.
