Found Object Painting

by

Help your child learn about shapes and textures by making a found object painting. Both preschoolers and older kids alike will love finding objects around the house to make patterns on a canvas. This is a piece of children’s artwork that you will definitely want to put up on the walls in your home!

Materials Needed:

Step One: Have you child go around the home and find objects of different shapes and sizes. Things that have a flat side work best.

Step Two: Begin dipping the objects in paint and stamping them on a canvas or piece of paper.

Step Three: Once the painting is full of shapes, let it dry and hang to enjoy!
