Warm Colors

The weather is changing and so are the leaves. This project is geared for children ages 2-5. This is part of the OKCMOA's new program called Tiny Tuesdays. This day we painted. I supplied the children with a warm color paint palette. We used red, yellow and orange. No rules, just fun!

Sometimes I like to give kids different items to paint with. This day we used feathers, brushes, sponges and q-tips.

With our sleeves rolled up and aprons on they were ready to use their tools and hands too!

I set up a glitter station for those that wanted to add some sparkle when they were finished. Happy, busy kids!

Very fun! This was a good reminder to allow my daughter to use glitter!

Can you make a facebook page, so people can follow on the daily feed?

Laura, that is something I have thought about doing for a while now. Maybe I'll get it set up today! Thanks for the push! It let's me know there is an interest.

I love painting without a paintbrush! Great for this time of year especially.
