This engaging Winter Hat Texture Art Project is a fun winter art lesson designed for Grades 1–3. It is broken down into clear, step-by-step instructions, so it can be taught by any classroom teacher, even if art is not your specialty!
Students will explore actual texture and visual texture as they create a colourful mixed-media winter hat. They will use crayons or pencil crayons to draw five different visual textures, including fuzzy, rough, bumpy, woolly and woven textures.
Students will also experiment with actual texture by creating a colourful tissue-paper pom-pom and a fringed construction-paper cuff. The completed hat is an adorable winter artwork that is perfect for a classroom or winter bulletin board display!

- Printed winter hat template
- 8.5 × 11-inch construction paper for the background
