Stomp & Splash! Outdoor Toddler Art Activity
Materials
- 1 squirt washable paint (red, yellow, and blue)
- 1 cup water
Steps
Prep Paint Bags:
- Add 1 squirt washable paint and 1 cup water into a freezer bag.
- Position a straw in one corner of the bag with one end sticking out. Seal the bag up to the straw.
- While holding the straw and zipped edge of the bag, gently blow through the straw to fill the bag up with air.
- Pull the straw out of the bag while simultaneously sealing the bag to capture the air inside.
- Shake the bag gently to mix the paint and water inside.
- Repeat with a different color of paint in each of the remaining bags.
Stomp & Splash!
- Place the paint-filled bags side-by-side on the sidewalk (or snow-covered ground).
- Invite your child to STOMP on each bag to pop them and splash the colorful paint. Alternatively, play a game by calling out random colors for your child to find and STOMP!
- Encourage your child to call out each color as they stomp and splash. If applicable, identify any new colors from the splashing paint mixing together.
