Helpful tips: Be sure to not add too much paint – if there’s too much the paper will rip and you’re more likely to slip. Encourage stomping versus walking, jumping, or running to decrease the likelihood of slips and falls. Paint can be slippery – so be sure to be close by to catch your little artist if they need it.
A great activity to do outside when the sun is shining! Enjoy 🙂
Please join in with the activities below. The more who can join in, the more fun, too. Not all of the activities are for everyone, so just do the ones you enjoy and as many times as you like.
