I'm trying to think of something crafty to do this afternoon and wondering if anyone has any good ideas as I'm not feeling particularly inspired!

I've got 3 aged 4, 2.5 and 1.5

Thanks!

Marble painting.

You need;
A large biscuit tin with lid
3 or 4 marbles/small balls
Paper and paints

Place paper in tin, squirt in blobs of paint, add the marbles, put on lid and shake/roll the tin.
When you take the lid off, you will be left with some great patterns! :thumbsup:

Great minds! I've just dug out some baking tins and marbles to do this!

Thank you x

Like this idea!

Will have to give it a try. Think I may use an old celebrations tub though.

Thanks :) x

I've done this with marbles dipped in paint and in the autumn we collect conkers and roll those too. All the children love it.

I'm going to have to steal this idea!! Another fab one! :)

You can do this with a salad spinner too.
Cut out circles of paper and place in the bottom of the spinner. Add blobs of paint, place lid on and spin.:thumbsup:

We have done this we got the salad spinner really cheap from a car boot

Kids loved it

Been meaning to try this out!! My charges are on holiday this week, maybe I should try this out before I let them have a go!! For health and safety reasons of course!! :P
