Cool "I Love You" Cat Rubber Stamp
Rubber Stamp-Cat Face
Children can use these stamps with a washable stamp pad.
Cat Toy Ball Art
First you need a large plastic container with a lid. (I used a shallow peanut butter container.) Next cut out paper that will fit in the lid of the container. Place a few drops of paint into the container with a cat toy ball, then place a very small amount of paint on the lid and pre-cut paper on the paint. (I use the paint to make the paper stick to the lid.) Place the lid on the container, flip and have the children shake. When finished, remove paper and allow to dry, and place a clean piece of paper in the lid for the next child.

Paper Bag Cat Masks

Paper Plate Cat Mask
Have the children paint a paper plate brown. When dry have the children add pipe cleaners for whiskers and brown tringles for ears. Cut out holes for the eyes and add a popsicle stick to the back of the plate near the bottom with glue.
Cat Puppets
Ask the parents to donate pictures of cats. Cut out the cats in the pictures and attach the pictures to a popsicle stick or a straw with tape to make a puppet.
Cat Placemat
Have the children cut out pictures of cats from magazines. Have the children glue the pictures onto a piece of paper. Laminate the paper and use for a placemat.
Sponge Print
You can find already shaped sponges at most art and craft stores or you can make your own. Obtain sponges shaped like cats. Have your child dip the sponges into paint and press on a piece of paper.
Cat Headbands
Measure your child's head, and cut a piece of construction paper long enough to create a headband. Glue the paper together so the headband fits snugly on your child's head but is loose enough to take off easily. Cut from brown paper two ears. Then, either staple or glue the ears to the headband.
Cat Necklaces
Have the children cut out cat shapes from construction paper. Then, have them use a hole punch to make a hole, so they can thread them onto a piece of yarn. Add colored noodles to the necklace.
Cat Rubbings
Cut cat shapes from paper doilys or sandpaper. Tape these shapes to the table. Have the children place a piece of thin white paper over the shapes and rub a crayon over the shape.
Cookie Cutter Painting
Put a small amount of tempera paint in a large shallow container. (A pie tin works well) Show your child how to dip the cat shaped cookie cutter in the paint and press onto a piece of paper to create a print.
