Social Studies: Countries and Cultures: Guatemala. Located Guatemala on a globe, completed a map worksheet, colored a Guatemalan flag and made these crafts from Guatemala/Central America.
These art ideas were taken from The Kids Multicultural Art Book: Art and Craft Experiences from Around the World by Alexandra M. Terzian.
The Guatemalan Wild Cat. Guatemala is home to jaguar and pumas in its forests and lowlands. The book suggests making this craft out of felt, but we used construction paper instead. The colors were the ones suggested in the book. 
Animalitos. In Guatemala, the expert craftsmen, made little animals, or animalitos out of cotton. They weave stripes of bright colors into shapes such as, dogs, rabbits, elephants, donkey, or bulls. 
We made ours out of paper, stapled around the edges and stuffed with cotton balls. The stripes are colored on with crayon.

These are adapted from the colorful, glazed clay dishes that are made in this region. Shayla colored the patterns in the book. We decided to make them sturdier by gluing them onto plastic lids.
Green Toad Bank. Clay banks are popular throughout the Central American region. They are made of paper mache and hand painted by artists.
