• Edible finger painting.. add food coloring to vanilla pudding to make diff colors, put each color on paper plate in center of table, pass out paper or cover the table in paper, and let the good times roll!!!

   

  PLAY DOH FUN

  TURTLES FROM AN EGG CARTON, HERES A PIC OF OURS

  

   

  CEREAL NECKLACES..  PUT CEAREAL (FRUIT LOOPS, CHEEREOS,APPLE JACKS ETC.) ONTO YARN AND VIOOLA

  SAND ART BUY A BIG BAG OF PLAY SAND, COLOR WITH FOOD COLORIING, EITHER BUY LIL CONTAINERS FOR THE KIDS TO POUR INTO, OR GLUE A REG. COLORING PAGE TO CARDBOARD, AND LET THEM PAINT EACH AREA WITH GLUE, THEN SPRINKLE COLORED SAND ONEACH AREA TO COLOR THE PICTURE, OR MAKE THEIR OWN SAND ART PICTURES.

  COLOR A PAPER COMPLETELY IN ALL DIFF COLORS THEN COLOR OVER WITH BLACK MARKER, GIVE THE POPSICLE STICKS, TOOTH PICKS, OR ANYTHINGS TO SCRATCH WITH, AND THEY CAN SCRATCH OUT A PICTURE IT LOOKS AWESOME WHEN DONE!!

   

  FALL TIME WE GO OUT AND GET PRETTY LEAVES, SHAVE CRAYONS INTO DIFF BOWLS, SET OUT A WAX PAPER SHEET FOR EACH CHILD, LET THEM PUT THEIR LEAVES ON THE WAX PAPER HOWEVER THEY LIKE, AND THEN SPRINKLE CRAYON SHAVINGS OVER THE LEAVES, PLACE ANOTHER WAX PEICE OVER TOP, AND THEN AN ADULT NEEDS TO IRON OVER IT BUT PUT A TOWEL BETWEEN THE IRON AND THE WAX PAPER OR PUT ON A LOW LOW SETTING. THEN HANG ON A GLASS SCREEN DOOR, OR WINDOW, THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL!! CAN ALSO DO THE SAME WITH FLOWERS...

  HOPE THESE HELP.

• Great ideas from the previous posts.  Maybe the children don't pay could bring you some "art" stuff?

• hi,

   

  you can make your own playdough with kids and divide into plastic container or baggies so they bring home. it's just basic ingredients for it like salt, flour,cream of tartar,oil, water  and food coloring. also you can add glitter too it.  they should enjoy making their own playdough.

  you and the kids can take empty soda,water or juice bottle fill up with water add food coloring, glitter , beads and other little tintkers put the cover back on it and it turns into a snow globe

  hope this will work for you..
