I started out with some washable Crayola paint that I poured into our Mickey Mouse ice cube tray and stuck some craft sticks in the paint. We then put it in our freezer and waited for a good day for some outside, messy, painting with ice-pop paint!
It started out tame …
Then, we started to experiment with painting our shoes …
But then …. it got … crazy … and SUPER FUN!!!!
I think I STILL have some blue paint in my hair! The kids and I REALLY enjoyed this activity together. There was TONS of smiles and laughter … especially when the paint started to FLY. It is an EXCELLENT sensory art activity for kids of ALL ages!
Here’s the paint we got on the paper …
(I got this idea from Art : Frozen Painting [hands on : as we grow]. THANKS … because we had a BLAST with this one.)
This looks so fun but I wonder if anyone here would accidentally eat the paint pops. Hmmm.
My kids didn’t think of it … but I could see that it COULD happen. Another reason I used non-toxic washable paint!
Awesome! So glad you had a blast!
