Puff Painting - 03 May 2011

This morning Bex came to work rather excited about an art idea she had! "We could do puff painting with the children!"
What a fantastic idea! We looked on the internet for the recipe and then talked about the process and how the children could be part of the whole process.
Bex mixed up the paint and we got some paper. We also put the microwave on a small table so the children could be part of the whole process.
The children loved to dot the paint onto the paper then take it to Sandy to put in the microwave. Holly loved to open the door for the paintings to in the microwave.





When Sandy turned the microwave on, the children stood back and watched the paintings go round and round and puff up! It was so exciting!
The puffy creations were awesome - we have to do this activity again soon!
