There’s something super fun about paint splatting, and this outdoor activity courtesy of “Buggy and Buddy” gives an added dimension…Tape!
Materials:
- Some white paper (e.g., thick watercolour paper)
- Paint brushes
- Paints in various colours (e.g., BioColor, Tempera)
- Blue/Green painter’s tape
Steps:
- Place pieces of painter’s tape all over our blank paper. Your child may be able to tear their own tape and use the pieces to make a pattern.
- Prepare paint in plastic cups and added a brush to each.
- Set up your materials outside so the kids can feel free to create without worrying about making a mess. Tape them to a log or weigh the corners down with rocks. Set up the paint cups of paint nearby.
- Offer a demonstration in splatting and have the kids take it from there!
- Allow the art to dry
- Bring the artwork inside, remove the tape, and reveal your designs!
