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:
- Cut sponges into shapes (I cut circles, squares, and triangles, but you can certainly go wild!)
- Pour a few colors of washable paint on to separate paper plates
What Your Child Will Do:
- 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....
