A friend of mine put up a picture of her daughter doing this activity and it was such a great idea that i decided to do it with the boys.
So what is it?
Paint in a bag- totally mess free.
To make:
If you have a large ziplock bag that's perfect for this as you can seal it but smaller ziplock bags will work just as well.
Slot a couple pieces of paper into the bag , then add a few blobs of paint onto the paper in the bag.
Seal the bag, try to get as much air as you can out so it doesn't pop.
They can push on the paint with their hands , swirl it around with their fingers to make patterns or even walk on it (maybe put newspaper down or do it outside if they want to walk on it just in case!!)
My middle was stunned that there was no paint on his hands!! He loved it and kept smushing the paint around the paper. Its an interesting feeling if you try it, cool and squishy.
Once they have finished you can take the paper out of the bag and dry in the sun to keep their pretty artistic prints!
