MARBLE PAINTING THE EARTH
This is a fast and fun craft! There's little mess unless your LO sticks their naughty little hands into it. :)
Warning! It's takes a LONG time to dry so you can't really enjoy it until the next day but the texture is so cool!
TOOLS:
- Cardboard
- Blue, Green, & White paint
- Scissors
- Marbles
- Container/box for painting
- Spoon
- Glitter Glue (or glitter and glue)
MAKE IT A CRAFT KIT
(Eliminate time consuming steps so you can spend more time with your LO)
- Gather tools
- Cut cardboard in circle shape (no need for perfection, I free handed it)
- Place the rest of the tools in the shoe box or in a plastic bag
STEPS:
- Place circle into container
- Spoon or squeeze blobs of each color paint onto the circle in several spots
- Place marbles into the paint
- Shake around (not up and down!)
- DONE!
