Sponge Painting

YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY!


  • Does it offer an educational experience? Yes
  • What does it teach? Colors, shapes, nature
  • Is it age (i.e., 2 - 3 year old) appropriate? Yes



What You’ll Need:

  • Large sponges
  • Scissors
  • Large thick white paper
  • Paper plates
  • Washable paint


Adult Prep Work:

  1. Cut sponges into shapes (I cut circles, squares, and triangles, but you can certainly go wild!)
  2. Pour a few colors of washable paint on to separate paper plates


What Your Child Will Do:

  1. Dip the sponge in the paint and dab on the paper


On one sheet of paper, we used all the shapes. And on another, we used the circle-shaped sponges to make spring flowers. I think my son is probably so sick of painting spring flowers, but mom's impatiently waiting for spring....
