Shake a Painting

What to do:

1. Fill salt shakers with different colors of powder paint.
2. Wet paper with a sponge or squirt bottle.
3. Have children gently shake different colors of dry paint onto wet paper.

Variations:

• Use Popsicle sticks or paint brushes to mix the paints and create new designs after the paint is on the paper.
• Use small cans with holes punched in the lids instead of shakers. (Shakers with handles work best for younger children.)
