- Draw and colour-in a large rainbow picture to put in your front window – people are doing this around the world to raise everyone’s spirits!
- Make a birthday card for a family member or a friend you can’t socialise with, make it personal and special for them with all your glitter pens and collage bits and bobs
- Sketch one another’s portrait, try doing it in the style of your favourite artist such as Picasso or Van Gogh. Pin up your portraits in your own home gallery.
