Fold a construction paper in half and open it again. Put a dab of different color paint in the middle of the paper where the crease was and fold in half again. Rub the folded paper to distribute the color. When you open it, you’ll have amazing designs. Of course have your child pick out the colors, and do the work. Ask her what the image resembles….a butterfly, an airplane, etc.
