Okay, so the
obvious continued use for the stampers is to reuse them. Stash them in a
container and take them out to use next time your child wants to make some art.
But, we’ll show you another way that your kiddo can play with them.
How? This is
where the building blocks come in. After the painting is done (and completely
dry), your child can turn the sponges into rainbow-colored blocks. This
activity isn’t just artsy, it helps your child to build fine motor and math
skills. She’ll also have to use her critical thinking skills to balance the
shapes and stack them – without everything falling down.
Even though
I just said that you should wait for the paint to dry, you can turn this
activity into (very) messy play. Instead, start building with the paint still
wet! Not only is this messy play, but it's a completely creative STEAM activity too.
Here’s What
You’ll Need:
·
Kitchen
sponges
·
Wax
paper
·
Scissors
Here’s What
to Do:
1. Create
geometric shape stampers. Read this how-to for more information. If you haven’t
made the stampers already, you’ll need to cut the sponges into shapes, and then…
2. Pour the
paint into pools on the wax paper. The wax paper protects your work surface and
acts as a palette (just less expensive). Try the primary colors (red, yellow
and blue) and white. Your little artist can mix them into a rainbow of hues with
the sponges. Coat the sponges completely. Your child can press the sponges down to make a few prints now too!
4. Start
stacking. Your child can build a tower, a wall or anything else she can think
up. Add more sponge shapes to the mix to create an entire pretend play world.
5. Take the
sponges down and repeat – but, with different designs (in other words, encourage
your child to build something different).
Keep in
mind, your child doesn’t necessary have to build upwards. She can keep the
design flat, and put the sponges together in patterns or puzzle-style on a
piece of cardboard too!
This blog is literally what I was searching for.
