I hosted another art group this week and decided to give ice painting a try I saw this idea on Growing a Jeweled Rose and was eager to try. I took her advise and did not add any additional water to the paint as I wanted it to be highly pigmented.
The results: The boys loved it! B had fun squishing the paint between his fingers once it melted a bit, while our friend L was SO excited that he got to have messy hands, look how proud he is!
It was a perfect activity for a warm summer day.
we are going to have to try this!
ReplyDeleteBRILLIANT!!!!!! Gonna be giving this a try this week! We went to the Delaware Children's Museum a few weeks ago and they had the best idea: noodles. Yep. Plain cooked noodles. With green food dye. Two bowls. Tongs and scoopers. Kept him busy for a while...
