A Fun Spin On Pumpkin Painting Art
I love discovering things I already have at home that my kids can use to create interesting art. The pumpkin painting activity I am going to share with you today was inspired when I was washing the dishes. I looked down at the scrubbing sponge I was using and thought it might make a good pumpkin stamper. With just a few extra items, my kids were able to create cute pumpkin painting art using an everyday item in a new way.
