  3. Start by stamping images of the children holding hands onto the strip of newspaper print. Apply ink from the stamp pad onto the stamp and press the image onto the strip of newsprint paper. Repeat, stamping in a random manner, until there are images of children holding hands all over the newsprint paper.

  5. Use the colored felt-tip pens; Fineliner pen, and crayons to color the children's clothes and hair. You can color all the images in the same way, as in this example, or you can color each image using different colors. Use a blue crayon to add blue squiggles in between the stamped images.
