I remember as a kid in year one, doing marble painting. I loved it. I decided to see if Lumpy felt the same.
A pretty cheap and easy activity to set up. Paper, paint, marbles and a container.
I have found that now Lumpy is older, I can set up an activity and then she is happy to finish getting things ready and guessing at what to do.
I rate this activity a great success and one we will be revisiting again and again!

Getting the paper ready. |
|
OH NO!!! the lid is broken!! |
|
Just add marbles - she was confused as to why we were adding the marbles and her first guess was that the paint was gluing them down. |
|
I suggested instead of gluing the marbles with teh paint, what if she moved the container? |
|
On to the next one, she had this down pat! |

Beautiful! |
You can see in the background some different papers from arts/crafts over the weekend, painting, making caterpillars on paddle pop sticks, colouring in! Our craft supplies have been boosted recently so it's all fun and games exploring them all!
