What to do:

• using assorted sized flags and maple leaves, children print a design of their choice.

How to do it:

• place paint in deep dish aluminum foil pans
• use assorted treasures or cut shapes to dip in paint
• gently press on paper
• if using sponge to create shapes, use foam at least 2" thick - attach clothes pins to keep fingers relatively clean

Variation:

• pre-cut out shapes from thick cardboard, potatoes or styrofoam and dip and print
• glue cardboard shapes to old thread spools for easier manipulation for younger children
• label pictures and clean up
• dry flat
