Great Idea!


Snow really, really is a great part of God's creation. We see it so rarely around here, I am extra thankful for this particular Great Idea of God's.

To continue our month of Snow in Art Class, we are painting with SNOW tomorrow. I found this idea on the web, ummmm, somewhere.

Equal parts flour, salt and water. (I will use 1 cup each)
food coloring
blue or black construction paper
small Dixie cups
cotton swabs
plastic spoons

This is a finger painting project. The spoons and cotton swabs are to help the children along. Once you mix the paint, separate it into the small cups. Stir in a few drops of food coloring. Then let the children use the spoons to scoop up a little onto their paper. Use the cotton swabs and fingers to spread the paint into shapes.

Once this drys, it is very white, sparkly and a little puffy.
