Splatter Painting





It started at breakfast. I caught Barrett spraying milk with a straw across the table. At his sister. Pretty much everywhere. 

It was one of those rare moments of inspiration. 








It was incredibly fun. And I think in Bear's eyes, I may have gotten the coolest mom of the day award. 

Supplies:
Straws
Paint
Something to paint on. We happened to have canvas leftover from another project
Drop cloth/old sheet (it is kindof messy)

Some misc. tips after our project: 
-use super long straws
-this may be a really good project for homemade paints (no matter how hard you try, there is a good chance it will end up in their mouth)
-supervise! I had to help getting paint in the straw and than he splattered
