COTTON BALL PAINTING
 |
Pour a small amount of tempera paint on a plate. |
|
Let your child use a cotton ball like a paintbrush,
dipping it in the paint and then brushing it onto a sheet
of paper. |
|
Use one color of paint or try two colors that mix well,
such as blue and yellow or red and yellow. |
|
FLUFFY
SNOWFLAKE
|
Cut a snowflake shape out of self-stick paper (the kind
used for covering shelves, cupboards, etc.) |
|
Remove the backing and place the snowflake sticky side
up on a table. |
|
Let your child place cotton balls all over the sticky
side to make a fluffy snowflake. |
|
SNOWBALL WALK AND TOSS
|
Give your child a paper plate with three cotton ball
"snowballs" on it and place a basket on the
other side of the room. |
|
Have your child balance the
snowballs on the plate while walking carefully over to
the basket. |
|
Let your child toss the snowballs into the basket before
returning for more. |
|
COTTON BALL SNOWSTORN
|
Make a "Cotton Ball Snowstorm" with your child.
Place a handful of cotton balls on the floor. |
|
Join your child on the floor as you blow the cotton
ball "snow" all around. Can you make your snowstorm
wild and windy? How about gentle and breezy? |
