{Play} Summer Spray Painting
September 1, 2011 in All Posts, Play
It’s the first of September and summer is almost officially over, but there’s still time for outdoor fun and making summer memories even though it’s back to school!
Materials
- spray bottle
- paint
- paper
- water (optional)
Step 1
Fill your spray bottle with paint. (We picked ours up for $1 at Target). Dilute the paint with water if desired.
Step 2
Get ready to get messy and spray away!
For more fun, spray with different colors and watch the colors mix together. Try to see how many color combinations you can make with three spray bottles filled with the primary colors. You can also tape down images and shapes and lift the tape when you’re finished for a splatter paint effect.
