Water Painting


What's more fun than painting?  Water and painting.  Have the kids draw with markers or stampers onto paper towels or napkins and then give them water droppers to add water and see the colors bleed.  It's a good opportunity to see colors blend and combine and learn about primary and secondary colors too.

Shaving cream is great fun for kids it's fluffy and can often smell intriguing.  One way to have kids have fun with shaving cream is to have them use it with paint brushes or just their own fingers and hands and paint clouds onto blue construction paper.
