    Default Marble painted baubles

    Did this with the children today and they loved it.

    Cut out some round bauble shapes - to fit an old 7'' sandwich tin is a good size.

    Use a couple of marbles dipped in paint of their choice and let the children roll them round in the tray to make a pattern.

    Finish with a shake of glitter, if you like.

    When dry, punch a hole in the top of the bauble, thread through some ribbon and hang up.

    Keep smiling!

    Lovely idea but I don't think I could trust my ball mad mindee not to throw the ball! I will give it a try though.
