Walking Art

This is one of lil A's favourite things to do, although she adores doing anything arty or especially messy art and games. It's so simple and so much fun, but just make sure your little ones don't suddenly disappear into a carpeted room!

It was a very simple method of taping down a roll of paper and using a paint pat purchased from ELC. The sponge pad helps to put a thin layer of paint on the hands and feet so you don't end up using too much and instead of getting hand and footprints you would just get big blobs of paint everywhere. For an even cheaper version you could use large sponges and squeeze paint onto them as this would work just as well.

Even lil E got involved and she loved it, although she looked a bit perplexed as to why she was allowed to make mess and get away with it! Still, it was a good sensory experience for her, she liked it on her hands but was a little less inclined to get her feet messy, probably because she had never felt paint squidging between her toes before and thought it felt strange hehe.

I on the other hand love seeing their little footprints all over the paper and wish I could record every little hand and footprint they ever make xx
