How to do it:
- mix paint thinly
and
dilute with water and a little liquid detergent
- use a straw
with finger over one end to trap paint inside straw
- hold straw
over paper and release by removing finger from end of straw
- proceed to
"blow" the bubble of paint around the paper either with or without
the straw
- try different
colors
- keep papers
small so children do not blow too much and get dizzy
N.B. some children may
try to suck the paint up the straw with their mouths - be ready to show them
how to trap paint with their fingers and to give them some water to rinse
with if necessary! Children enjoy the challenge of this kind of painting.
