MATERIALS:
• Cotton balls
• Craft paint
• Craft paper
• Paper plate and paper towel
• Puffy paint (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
1. Set up your painting station by
pouring paint out onto your paper
plate. Place your plate and craft
paper onto a paper towel to catch
any mess.
2. Dip a cotton ball into the paint and
press it into your paper. Make all
sorts of winter designs on your
paper – snow, rain, clouds, even a
snowman. Notice the differences
when your background canvas is
white or black!
3. Create a cute wintery scene! Kids
will love painting with cotton
balls, giving them a new tool to use
as they paint, as well as making fun
designs for winter.
4. Once your designs have dried, add
a little puffy paint to them to give
your shape dimension. We added
all sorts of items to our snowman
to bring him to life.
