While visiting my parents I knew I needed some fun activities for Bro-Bro and Ya-Ya. I always enjoy trying something new with the twins...I think they enjoy it too! This art activity worked great because there was no mess and no clean-up. I did not have to worry about paint getting all over everyone and everything.
Supplies: Paint, paper, sponge, scissors, tape, gallon-size plastic bag and a paper plate
Set up: I placed a piece of white paper inside the plastic plastic bag and put a few paint blobs on a paper plate. Cut the sponge into small squares and dipped them into the paint and put them in the bags. After Bro-Bro and Ya-Ya started playing with the plastic bags I quickly realized that I need to have them sealed better with tape. Tape is a must or might have a mess!
They had a good time playing with the sponges, swishing, trying to make them move around and shaking the bags. Afterward, I pulled out the papers and showed them their masterpieces and threw the plastic bags and paper plates away. No mess, no clean-up, Yay! I placed the pictures on a paper towel to let them dry. Now they are hanging on my parent's refrigerator!
