Loofah Painted Spring Chickens
Need an easy way to introduce painting to your little one? Try this simple craft using a bath loofah and paint! Expect a lot of fun and a lot of mess!
Supplies:
- Paper
- Paint
- Paper plate
- Bath loofah
- Markers
- Paint bib or smock—or have Baby paint in the bathtub wearing just a diaper.
Directions:
- Pour assorted paints of color of your choosing onto the paper plate.
- Use the loofah as a stamp to make the body of springtime baby animals. You will want to pinch a section of the loofah to make a smaller body of the animal.
- Once dried, use the markers to add on a face and feet.
- Hang and enjoy!
Helpful tip: If this is the first time introducing your babe to paint, make sure to watch for curious licking of that wet, colorful stuff on her hands!
