Mess free painting!
Materials:
construction paper
bowl ( I prefer a bowl over a cup because it is less likely to tip over)
water (a little water goes a long way)
paint brush (I love the Melissa and Doug paint brushes because they help promote correct pencil grip)
How To:
Model dipping the paintbrush into the water and drawing on the paper
Let your child repeat
Talk About It:
"w w water"
"w w wet"
"p p paint"
come up with a word when they paint a line "zip" was what I used when Owen would paint across-this encourages them to say "zip" as well
