Today we are being featured at one of our favorite places
You can check out one of our favorite art projects for our little friends. The end product is amazing and one of a kind! Perfect to adorn any wall in in your home.
Watercolors are a classroom favorite for us. They allow
children to be expressive and let their inner artist shine. At Simply Sprout we love to
encourage kids to roll up their sleeves and get a little messy. So what better
way to spend a rainy afternoon than by creating a little art for your walls
using watercolors. We promise even the littlest hands can help you create
something frame worthy for your home.
Start off by gathering some
materials:
Scrapbook stickers in various styles
White construction paper
Craft paint / brushes/ small
containers to hold paint
stickers
To get ready, use shallow containers
and add a little craft paint*, dilute with water.
*Using craft paint helps to give you
more vibrant colors.
Have your little one help you come
up with a phrase or saying (depending on the age you might need to help with
this). Have them help you identify the letters and stick them into the correct
order on their construction paper. Once your layout is complete encourage your
child to paint their paper using the watercolors (diluted paint). Allow to dry.
Peel off the stickers to reveal their masterpiece.
Love these! This is something I'd love to try with my daughter!! :)
