Young Explorers 'Sticky Paper Art'

Sign Age ends up with a lot of scrap vinyl in a variety of colors from our many ongoing projects. As a result, we donate the scrap vinyl to several schools in the area. Young Explorer Schools is one that receives the scraps. The school kids call it 'Sticky Paper Art'. They create large colorful murals using the vinyl pieces.

Dr. Fil Brooks, Educational Director for Young Explorers, shared a picture of one of the murals the school kids produced. She says that not only can "each child be successful and enjoy creating their own art pieces, they have practice using scissors which enables them to develop their small motor skills. It is always rewarding to watch them spend time peeling the backing and feeling they have accomplished a major achievement. Young Explorers Schools truly appreciate Sign Age for supplying us with the vinyl. 'Sticky Paper Art' is a big exciting and rewarding art experience for us!"
